Ingredients
- 1 cup of long-grain white or brown rice, uncooked
- 6 cups of water
- 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon
- 2 cups of plant-based milk (any variety)
- ¼ to ½ cup of sugar (depending on sweetness preference)
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Instructions
- Pour rice, water, and cinnamon into a blender and blend it until the rice is broken up and the water looks milky, let it sit overnight in the refrigerator.
- Using cheesecloth or a fine mesh strainer over a pitcher to remove the rice, pour the rice milk into a pitcher.
- Add the plant-based milk, sugar, and vanilla extract, mix well, and enjoy it poured into a glass of ice.

Notes
- Blend it thoroughly: When ready, the Mexican cinnamon milk should be smooth and milky with just a slightly gritty texture. The rice needs to be broken down as much as possible to extract the most flavor.
- Leave it to soak: This step is really important to make the creamiest agua de horchata recipe. Some recipes soak the rice pre-blending, but we prefer to do so after.
- For the creamiest horchata: Blend it before AND after soaking.
- Strain it well: Otherwise the rice and cinnamon residue can make the Mexican rice milk a little ‘chalky’. You may need to strain it twice.
