How to make it
Soak the purple corn in cold water overnight, keeping that water in the morning.

Strain it through a fine sieve, pressing the pulp, and strain it a second time.
Add the remaining water, the cinnamon, cloves and orange peel.
Cook over medium heat for forty minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon, until it thickens.
Add the sugar and lemon juice and cook five minutes more.
Remove the spices and serve it hot in mugs, with a fried cheese pastry.
