Orchata (rice drink)

 

1 cup long grain white rice

1 cup hot water

4 cups milk

1/2 cup sugar

1 cinnamon bark

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

 

Soak rice in bowl with the water, enough to cover rice overnight. In morning, drain

the water and put rice in large blender. Add 1/2 cup fresh water and 2 cups milk,

sugar, vanilla, and ground fine in blender. Then add 2 cups milk and cinnamon and

ground fine again. Strain through cheese cloth or fine screen several times until the

beverage is no longer gritty. Chill in fridge for later. This is both refreshing and good

for your digestive system
