What is a Mexican Horchata?

The Horchata is an authentic Mexican drink is the perfect recipe to have on hand.  In addition, it’s the perfect compliment to your favorite Mexican meals and it’s a must-have for that Cinco de Mayo party.  The Horchata is made up of white rice soaked in water, it’s flavored with cinnamon and its sweetened with granulated sugar. Everything is blended and later strained to remove solids. Some versions are dairy free while others contain milk and some versions contain nuts, vanilla, or coconut.

Yes. Replace whole milk with canned coconut milk or non-dairy milk such as almond milk.  There is also Kahlúa in our Horchata cocktail.

Kahlúa Original does not contain milk, cream or any milk derived ingredients.  

What type of rice should I use for a Horchata?  

All-purpose long grain white rice works well for traditional horchata.  You can use other type of rice such as basmati, brown rice or jasmine rice.  These grains will add a unique flavor, but be less traditional.
