Ingredients:

  • 1 rice

Directions:

  1. Cup uncooked white long-grain rice
  2. Cups water
  3. /2 cup milk
  4. /2 tablespoon vanilla extract
  5. /2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  6. /3 cup white sugar
  7. Directions
  8. Pour the rice and water into the bowl of a blender; blend until the rice just begins to break up, about 1 minute. Let rice and water stand at room temperature for a minimum of 3 hours.
  9. Strain the rice water into a pitcher and discard the rice. Stir the milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and sugar into the rice water. Chill and stir before serving over ice.
  10. I have since made this 3 times and found the trick to perfecting this the second time around! Here's my recommendation for authentic homemade horchata: put 1 1/3 cup rice in the blender - add about 2 cups of water and 2 cinnamon sticks and blend until the rice and cinnamon are roughly ground. Add the remaining water and blend thoroughly. Pour into a pitcher and place in the refrigerator to soak (overnight is best) - or at the very least 4-5 hours. Strain the mixture through a sieve. I doubled the amount of milk called for - and about half the sugar (a generous 1/3 cup as I like my horchata not too sweet) and a generous splash of vanilla. PERFECTO!
