According to the legend, the king of Aragon, who first treated Ocharts in Valencia, wanted to know what he was offered for the drink. The girl who served a delicious cocktail said it was "Llet de Xufa" (milk from chows). The king was affected by the taste of drink and exclaimed: "AçÒ no és llet, açn és or xata!"
