Horchata
8 steps
Prep:5hCook:10min
For a richer horchata, use whole milk instead of skim or low-fat milk.
If you don't have a blender, you can grind the rice in a food processor or coffee grinder.
If you want to make your horchata ahead of time, you can refrigerate it for up to 3 days.
Horchata is a naturally sweet drink, so you may not need to add as much sugar as the recipe calls for.
