Method

  1. Combine ingredients in a blender. Add sweetener and variations (below) to taste.
  2. Blend until smooth, roughly 1–2 minutes
  3. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight if possible, and use within 5 days.

Notes

  • Rice milk is easy to customize. White, brown, or even wild rice can be used. For new flavors, try adding cocoa powder, vanilla, or banana.
  • For a vegan horchata, add 1 tablespoon vanilla and 2 tablespoons cinnamon to the rice milk.
  • This recipe's quantities can be adjusted, keeping a 1:4 ratio of rice to water.
  • If the milk seems too grainy, the rice can be soaked in water overnight before cooking, or strained through cheesecloth after blending.
