Cinnamon Horchata Rice Pudding
Description
Cinnamon Horchata Rice Pudding uses rice simmered gently in a mixture of almond milk, rice milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon sticks, and cloves until it softens and thickens to a creamy consistency. The use of aromatic spices such as cinnamon and cloves imparts warm, fragrant notes that evoke traditional horchata flavors. Both long-grain and Arborio rice are suitable; Arborio yields a slightly creamier texture due to its starch content.
The slow simmering over low heat allows the rice to absorb the spiced liquids, creating a comforting pudding with a tender bite. After cooking, the cinnamon sticks and cloves are removed for texture and served with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon to enhance the warm spice profile.
This pudding can be enjoyed warm just after cooking or chilled for a refreshing treat. It's a dessert that pairs well with simple meals or can be served as a light sweet ending to a day.

Instructions
- In a large saucepan, combine rice, sugar, almond milk, rice milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon sticks, and cloves.
