Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup uncooked long-grain white rice
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup whole almonds
- 4 cups water
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup dark rum (optional)
- 2 cups ice cubes
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for garnish)
Instructions
Rinse the uncooked rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and helps with the texture.
In a blender, combine the rinsed rice, ground cinnamon, and whole almonds with 2 cups of water. Blend on high until the mixture is as smooth as possible, approximately 1-2 minutes.
Pour the blended mixture into a large bowl or pitcher, and add the remaining 2 cups of water. Stir well, cover, and let it soak at room temperature for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best flavor.
Strain the soaked mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean bowl, pressing down to extract all the liquid. Discard the solids.
Whisk in the whole milk, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and dark rum (if using) until well combined. Taste and adjust sweetness or add more cinnamon if desired.
Refrigerate the horchata for at least 1 hour to chill, or until ready to serve.
To serve, fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the chilled horchata over the top.
Garnish each glass with a light dusting of ground cinnamon for extra flair and aroma.
Serve immediately and enjoy this creamy and spiced iced drink!
