    This is one of our favorite Mexican beverages, so we figured it would be fun to try to make them ourselves for the Supper Club. It takes a while, but most of the time is just letting the rice soak. It's a really easy recipe. We forgot to get a picture of these before they were all gone - oops! But here's a photo of 95% of the night's tastiness:

    "A very easy way to make great horchata!"

    Prep Time: 10 Min
    Ready In: 3 Hrs 10 Min

    Yield 6 cups

    1 cup uncooked white long-grain rice
    5 cups water
    ½ cup milk
    ½ tablespoon vanilla extract
    ½ tablespoon ground cinnamon
    ⅔ cup white sugar

    1. Pour the rice and water into the bowl of a blender; blend until the rice just begins to break up, about 1 minute. Let rice and water stand at room temperature for a minimum of 3 hours.

    2. Strain the rice water into a pitcher and discard the rice. Stir the milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and sugar into the rice water. Chill and stir before serving over ice.
