Agua De Horchata
Ready In: 10 mins
Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
- 3⁄4 cup rice
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon or 1 in cinnamon stick
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons good vanilla (Mexican is best)
- 1⁄2-3⁄4 cup sweetened condensed milk
- water, as necessary
Directions
- Rinse the rice in a colander. Place in a blender and add enough water to cover by an inch; soak 5 or 10 minutes. Add the vanilla and cinnamon and blend until finely ground. Drain the liquid through colander into a pitcher.
- Return the ground rice to the blender. Add the condensed milk and about 2 cups water and blend again. Drain into the pitcher. Discard any remaining rice.
- Add more water to the pitcher, one cup at a time, until it has the right amount of sweetness for you. Add ice and serve cold.
- Note: you can add 1 cup sugar or so and 1 cup milk, instead of the sweetened condensed milk . I suppose you could use rice or even soy milk, but I haven't tried it.
