📝 Instructions

6 steps
1

Add the white rice, hot water, and the cinnamon stick to a blender. Blend on high speed for 2-3 minutes until the rice is broken down and the mixture is milky.

2

Strain the rice mixture through a fine mesh sieve or a cheesecloth into a large bowl or pitcher, pressing down to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.

3

Rinse the blender and pour the strained liquid back into it. Add whole milk, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon.

4

Blend everything together on high speed for 1-2 minutes until smooth and well combined.

5

Taste the horchata and add granulated sugar if more sweetness is desired. Blend again briefly to dissolve the sugar.

6

Fill glasses with ice and pour the horchata over the top. Serve immediately, garnished with a pinch of ground cinnamon if desired.
