Frozen Horchata

Frozen Horchata

David Venable

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Serves: 4

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup long grain white rice
  • 1/4 cup blanched, sliced almonds
  • 1/4 of a small cinnamon stick
  • 2 cups of water
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup vanilla ice cream
  • 6 oz sweetened condensed milk
  • Cinnamon powder for garnish

Preparation

Combine the rice, almonds, cinnamon stick, and water in a lidded container.

Cover and let sit overnight. Transfer the mixture into a blender and blend on high for about a minute or until very small pieces of almond and cinnamon remain.

Strain through a fine mesh sieve lined with a couple layers of cheese cloth and strain a second time if necessary. Transfer to an ice cube tray and freeze for at least three hours.

When frozen, combine the horchata ice cubes in a blender with milk, ice cream, and sweetened condensed milk. Blend until the mixture is smooth.

Pour into a glass, garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon, and enjoy!

Cook's Notes

Double or even quadruple the first four ingredients to always have horchata ice cubes on hand!
