Ingredients

1 cup rinsed brown rice (I used short grain brown rice)
4 cups water
2 cinnamon sticks
1 cup milk of your choice (I used skim milk)
1/3 cup raw sugar (agave, or sweetener of your choice)
1 teaspoon dark vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon ( plus more to topping)

Instructions

Soak the rice overnight or at least 8 hours in water with cinnamon sticks.
The next day discard cinnamon sticks and blend the rice and water in your blender at the highest speed for about 5 minutes.
Pass through a fine mesh sieve about two times to catch all the gritty bits. (A stocking works great) Discard the remaining rice pulp.
Pour into a pitcher, add skim milk, sugar, ground cinnamon and vanilla and mix well by stirring. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
To serve fill a glass with ice, pour horchata into a glass and sprinkle a little cinnamon on each serving just before drinking.
