Pocahontas was a chief’s daughter, and she liked her treats.
Powcohiscora AKA nut milk—pounded nuts mixed with water and sweetened either with honey or maple/other tree syrup. For an extra special treat, Powcohiscora was added to cooked hominy grits. Hickory nuts were preferred though other nuts such as black walnuts were used. (she is said to be my great…great grandmother, but that is another story)
