Horchata is made out of rice, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon and is served in many Mexican restaurants.  There's an important balance to the creamy rice and cinnamon flavors found in horchata and this homemade horchata recipe is my favorite.\nHow to Make Horchata:\nBlend:\nCombine the rice, hot water, and cinnamon sticks in a blender and blend until the rice and cinnamon sticks are roughly ground. Add the remaining water and blend again. Pour contents into a pitcher or container with a fitted lid and refrigerate overnight (or at least 8 hours).\nStrain\n: Pour the rice mixture into a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth over a pitcher and discard the rice.\nFinish Horchata:\nStir in the milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and sugar (to your preference). Chill until ready to serve. Stir well before serving and serve over ice.\nWhat is Hochata de Chufa?\nHorchata de chufa\n is popular in Spain and it differs from Mexican horchata (or horchata de arroz) in that Mexican horchata is made with rice and horchata de chufa is made with chufa (also known as tiger nuts).\nRecipe Variations:\nVegan:\nTo make this recipe vegan, simply substitute equal parts almond milk for the milk in the recipe.\nYou may also like these\nMexican recipes\n:\nWet Burrito\nSmothered Green Chili Chicken Burritos\nAuthentic Mexican Rice\nCheese Enchiladas\nGrilled Chicken Street Tacos\nMole Enchiladas\nEsquites (Mexican Corn in a Cup)\n▢\n1 1\/2\ncups\nuncooked long-grain white rice\n▢\n2\nMexican cinnamon sticks\n▢\n4\ncups\nhot water\n▢\n2\ncups\nmilk\n,\n, or almond milk\n▢\n2\nteaspoons\nvanilla extract\n▢\n2\nteaspoons\nground cinnamon\n▢\n&frac13; – 1\/2\ncups\ngranulated sugar\n,\n, to taste\nTo a blender, add rice, 2 cups of hot water, and 2 Mexican cinnamon sticks. \nBlend until the rice and cinnamon sticks are roughly ground.

While it tastes pretty good, are you sure about needing 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon? Is this a typo? Maybe 1\/2 a teaspoon? The ground cinnamon was all over the sides of my glasses and didn’t seem to be absorbed or integrated. My drink certainly doesn’t look like the photo.\n\n0\n\nReply\n\nAdmin\n\nStacy Popham\n\n5 months ago\n\nReply to  [Luke](https:\/\/tastesbetterfromscratch.com\/horchata\/#comment-595885)\n\nAh, thanks for trying it and for the thoughtful note! The 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon is correct for a really cinnamon-forward flavor (which I personally love), but it can definitely be adjusted to taste. If it was a bit much or didn’t fully mix in for you, 1\/2 teaspoon is a great place to start and you can always add more.\n\n0\n\nReply\n\nMichelle\n\n2 months ago\n\nReply to  [Luke](https:\/\/tastesbetterfromscratch.com\/horchata\/#comment-595885)\n\nA tip that works for me, instead of stirring in the final ingredients after straining the rice, I put the rice milk and the rest of the ingredients in the blender on high for a minute or so.

I read through the comments to get an idea of how to troubleshoot. My first batch of water was hot to touch but not boiling and I pulsed it so the grains were broken up into smaller chunks- but not powder and I used all of of the rice – no more than 10-15 seconds tops. I emptied it into my bowl- The second batch of water I simply stirred in. I let it sit overnight before following the rest of the directions as it states. Wonderful, very tasty, not too sweet nor gritty.

There's an important balance to the creamy rice and cinnamon flavors found in horchata and this homemade horchata recipe is my favorite. ## How to Make Horchata: Blend:* Combine the rice, hot water, and cinnamon sticks in a blender and blend until the rice and cinnamon sticks are roughly ground. Add the remaining water and blend again. Pour contents into a pitcher or container with a fitted lid and refrigerate overnight (or at least 8 hours). ![A blender filled with rice, hot water, and cinnamon sticks to make homemade Horchata.](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20width='1200'%20height='800'%20viewBox='0%200%201200%20800'%3E%3C/svg%3E) Strain: Pour the rice mixture into a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth over a pitcher and discard the rice. ![Horchata being poured into a glass through a fine mesh strainer.](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20width='1200'%20height='800'%20viewBox='0%200%201200%20800'%3E%3C/svg%3E) Finish Horchata: Stir in the milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and sugar (to your preference).

While it tastes pretty good, are you sure about needing 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon? Is this a typo? Maybe 1/2 a teaspoon? The ground cinnamon was all over the sides of my glasses and didn’t seem to be absorbed or integrated. My drink certainly doesn’t look like the photo. 0 Reply Admin Stacy Popham 5 months ago Reply to [Luke](https://tastesbetterfromscratch.com/horchata/#comment-595885) Ah, thanks for trying it and for the thoughtful note! The 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon is correct for a really cinnamon-forward flavor (which I personally love), but it can definitely be adjusted to taste. If it was a bit much or didn’t fully mix in for you, 1/2 teaspoon is a great place to start and you can always add more. 0 Reply Michelle 2 months ago Reply to [Luke](https://tastesbetterfromscratch.com/horchata/#comment-595885) A tip that works for me, instead of stirring in the final ingredients after straining the rice, I put the rice milk and the rest of the ingredients in the blender on high for a minute or so. Everything gets incorporated really well. 0 Reply Jordan 7 months ago Would you say this makes about a gallon? 0 Reply katherine 7 months ago ![4 stars](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20width='80'%20height='16'%20viewBox='0%200%2080%2016'%3E%3C/svg%3E) The overall flavor of the Horchata is good, but I don’t understand why ground cinnamon was put in the recipe, because it doesn’t blend with the liquid. 2 Reply Gina 11 months ago ![5 stars](data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20width='80'%20height='16'%20viewBox='0%200%2080%2016'%3E%3C/svg%3E) Fantastic recipe. I read through the comments to get an idea of how to troubleshoot. My first batch of water was hot to touch but not boiling and I pulsed it so the grains were broken up into smaller chunks- but not powder and I used all of of the rice – no more than 10-15 seconds tops. I emptied it into my bowl- The second batch of water I simply stirred in. I let it sit overnight before following the rest of the directions as it states. Wonderful, very tasty, not too sweet nor gritty.

Plus, horchata is an extra fun addition to taco night. I can't say this recipe is authentic, but it's my take on it and I think it tastes incredible. (Here's an authentic Horchata recipe from [Isabel Eats](https://www.isabeleats.com/horchata-recipe/).) Let me know how you make horchata, in the comments below\! ## What is Horchata? Horchata (pronounced or-CHAH-tah) is a popular Mexican drink that is often described as a sweet rice milk beverage. Horchata is made out of rice, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon and is served in many Mexican restaurants. There's an important balance to the creamy rice and cinnamon flavors found in horchata and this homemade horchata recipe is my favorite. ## How to Make Horchata: Blend:* Combine the rice, hot water, and cinnamon sticks in a blender and blend until the rice and cinnamon sticks are roughly ground. Add the remaining water and blend again. Pour contents into a pitcher or container with a fitted lid and refrigerate overnight (or at least 8 hours). ![A blender filled with rice, hot water, and cinnamon sticks to make homemade Horchata.](https://tastesbetterfromscratch.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Horchata-Web-1.jpg) Strain: Pour the rice mixture into a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth over a pitcher and discard the rice. ![Horchata being poured into a glass through a fine mesh strainer.](https://tastesbetterfromscratch.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Horchata-3.jpg) Finish Horchata: Stir in the milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and sugar (to your preference). Chill until ready to serve. Stir well before serving and serve over ice. ![Two glasses of Horchata topped with two cinnamon sticks and a dusting of cinnamon and a bottle behind it.](https://tastesbetterfromscratch.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Horchata-5.jpg) ## What is Hochata de Chufa?
