Esquites: Mexican Street Corn with Bold Flavor in Every Bite

Looking for a snack that packs serious flavor? Say hello to **Esquites** — a beloved Mexican street food brought to life right here at Atwater Street Tacos. Whether you’re exploring new tastes or already love authentic Mexican food, this dish delivers a bold, savory punch you won’t forget.

What Are Esquites?

Esquites are a warm, creamy, and spicy corn cup—think of it as the off-the-cob cousin to elote. We start with perfectly sautéed **sweet corn**, then mix in smoky, flavorful **chorizo**, a blend of traditional Mexican **herbs and spices**, and finish it all off with generous amounts of **shredded cheese** and a squeeze of **fresh lime juice**. It’s warm, comforting, and full of mouthwatering layers.

Why You’ll Love Our Esquites

• Sweet Meets Heat: The sweetness of the corn balances beautifully with the smoky, spicy flavor of the chorizo.
• Crave-Worthy Comfort: Melty cheese and citrusy lime juice take this dish over the top.
• Snack, Side, or Solo Star: Whether you’re pairing it with tacos or enjoying it solo, Esquites hits the spot.
• Customizable Heat: Like it hot? Want it mild? We’ll make it just how you like it.
