In Santiago del Monte, visitors can savor the authentic flavors of Asturias through its traditional drinks, particularly the iconic **Asturian cider (sidra)**. Sidra is a central part of Asturian culture, made from locally grown apples and known for its slightly tart, refreshing taste. To enjoy sidra the traditional way, look for a nearby **sidrería** (cider house), where locals practice the art of *escanciado*—pouring the cider from a height to enhance its natural carbonation. This ritual is as much a part of the experience as the drink itself!

If you’re in the mood for something warm, try a cup of **café con leche**, a popular choice throughout Spain, perfect for a leisurely morning or an afternoon pick-me-up.

For wine lovers, the nearby La Rioja wine region means Spanish reds and whites are also readily available at local cafes and restaurants, making an excellent pairing with traditional Asturian dishes. Whether you’re sipping cider, coffee, or wine, Santiago del Monte offers plenty of ways to experience the rich flavors of Asturias.
