How would you make the Best Agua de Horchanta ever?

November 8, 2009 - 9:05 pm 1 Comment


Two cups of uncooked rice have been soaking in water over night.

The other ingredients are cinnamon sticks, water and sugar to taste. A dash of vanilla is optional as is a bit of almond extract.

The soaking water is discarded, then the rice and cinnamon are blended with new water until the rice is well pulverized.

The mixture is strained into a pitcher of cold water, then the desired amount of sugar is added along with any optional items.

More water may be added as needed to make a thin drink.

Place in the fridge until well chilled or serve over ice.

A sure way to make a mess is to use cooked rice — a starchy, gooey mess.
