What's a horchata?
Soak rice overnight. Add riceand water, milk, cinnamon, vanilla, sugar, to blender . Blend. Strain. Serve over ice, or not.
I drink my horchata warm because fuck ICE
Yes but also it is better cold in case you're actually trying it
They have powder at the supermarket that is delicious.
I'll have to look for that. Probably not at our regular market but there is a south American specialty store across the street that I have neglected.
Here in Florid they have at Publix. It is, of course, Florida.
It's a sweet, frothy, milk-like drink popular in Hispanic and Latin culture.
Not sure, maybe is something from Central America because first time hearing about it
it's from Espana
@Hadriscus @driving_crooner its crushed nuts milk, kinda like almond milk, but with "chufas", a tubercule that is said to look like testicles
This is the one I know but apparently there's other forms of horchata (not de chufa) from south america. At least wikipedia says so
Reading other people's explanations makes me feel a little bad that my brain went
"Mexican chocolate milk with cinnamon"
I oughta work on some biases
Pure deliciousness.
A drink that tastes like melted churro ice cream.
