Strawberry Almond Horchata(Mexico)

Strawberry Almond Horchata(Mexico)


1. Grind the rice in a coffee mill. Add it to a container with almonds, cinnamon stick and hot water.

2. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

3. In the morning, puree the whole lot in your blender until very smooth.

4. Strain in fine strainer, pressing against the sides with spatula to release all liquid. or – even easier – use a double layer of cheesecloth, squeezing with hands to release all that precious liquid. Discard the solids. For even smoother results, strain a second time.

5. Add as much sugar, milk, and vanilla extract as you’d like. Whisk thoroughly to dissolve the sugar.

6. Garnish with fresh chopped strawberries and shaved ice. Stir in and enjoy.

7. Optionally, you can return it to the blender with some strawberries – then the drink will be pink.
