Total Time 1 day d 10 minutes mins
- 4 1/2 cups water
- 1 1/4 cup slivered almonds
- 1/3 cup long grain rice
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 cup evaporated milk
- 1/2 cup sugar
Combine the water, almonds, rice, vanilla and cinnamon and stir. Cover and let sit a room temp overnight.
Add the mixture to a blender and blend on high until well pureed. Pour through a nut milk bag into a pitcher and add the sugar and evaporated milk plus a dash of vanilla and cinnamon and stir well until sugar dissolves.
Store in the fridge and serve over ice. It is normal for the horchata to separate while stored in the fridge. Just shake well before serving to recombine.
