Best Horchata Recipe
Report
Horchata is a creamy beverage made from rice and spiced with cinnamon and vanilla. Sounds weird, but I swear it’s delicious, especially when paired with spicy Mexican food!

- Add 6 cups water, 1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste, and 2 cinnamon sticks.
- Blend for about 1 minute, or until the rice and cinnamon sticks have broken up.
- Refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours. A full 8 hours is best.
- Pour the liquid through a fine mesh strainer into a large pitcher. Discard the rice.
- Add the can of sweetened condensed milk, water, milk, cream, and sugar. Stir well and taste it. Add more ground cinnamon and vanilla bean paste if you want. Adjust the sugar to taste.
