Horchata is a Mexican drink that's very refreshing on a hot day. I got this recipe a couple of years ago from a Mexican coworker, and it is the best horchata I've had!

  • quarts hot water: 2 piece
  • white sugar: 0.5 cup
  • ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon: 1 piece
  • long grain rice: 1 cup
  • milk: 1 cup
  • ice cubes: (for serving)

  2. Stir in milk, then puree with a hand blender, or in batches in a standing blender until the rice resembles fine sand. Strain through several layers of cheesecloth, or through a very fine strainer. Serve over ice.
