🥛 Horchata

6 glasses · prep 10 min · cook 0 min

Ingredients

• 200 g long-grain white rice
• 1 l water
• 1 cinnamon stick
• 250 ml milk (or coconut milk)
• 100 g sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• Ice cubes

Method

1. Rinse the rice, then leave it to soak in the water with the cinnamon stick.
2. Give it at least 4 h, or overnight in the fridge: the rice has to soften to release its starch.
3. Blend the rice at length with its soaking water and the cinnamon, until the liquid turns white and opaque.
4. Strain twice through a fine cloth — that is the only way to avoid a gritty texture.
5. Add the milk, sugar and vanilla, and stir until dissolved.
6. Serve very cold over ice, with a pinch of cinnamon.
