Fast and Easy Horchata image

What the heck is Horchata, Torrey??? It's a traditional chilled Mexican drink, made from rice (or almonds) and poured over ice. It tastes like...um...imagine if rice pudding were a dink. That's what it tastes like. SO delicious. Normally it's an overnight process to make this (soaking rice and all), but I didn't have that...

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 14 oz. cans sweetened condensed milk
approx 1 gal milk *
1 cup rice flour **
1 Tbsp pure vanilla extract
2 to 3 Tbsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
SUBSTITUTIONS
* may substitute vanilla flavored almond milk or rice milk for regular milk. if you do this...omit the vanilla.
** may use almond flour instead of rice flour (or can combine the two)

Steps:

  • 1. In heavy pan, bring milk, salt and cinnamon just to boil over medium heat.
  • 2. HINT: Save the jug from your milk to store the finished Horchata in....it's convenient, and you'll know what the "expiration" date is.
  • 3. Remove from heat. Whisk in sweetened condensed milk, rice or almond flour and vanilla.
  • 4. Pour back into empty milk jug. Chill in refrigerator (for at least an hour or so before serving). Store in refrigerator. Will keep beyond the original expiration for the milk by a few days.
  • 5. The rice/almond flour will settle to bottom, so before serving...shake up jug to redistribute rice/almond flour (aren't you glad you saved the milk jug??). Pour over ice. Garnish with ground cinnamon or a cinnamon stick.

I'm not a big fan of horchata, but I decided to try this recipe anyway. I'm so glad I did! The horchata was creamy, flavorful, and refreshing. I loved the subtle sweetness and the hint of cinnamon. I'll definitely be making this again.
