It's so good it's so incredible. Nowhere near me makes it though so I have to make it myself and that would be fine but I'm really bad at it :sadness

Soak rice overnight in water, and pulverize it in the water with a blender. Strain out the mix and keep cycling through the blender until you don't have big chunks. Don't overdo it on the water at first, you kinda want to make a concentrate so it's easier for the blender to pulverize.
Mix together sugar and cinnamon, then toss that into the blender with the rice slurry.
Dilute the mix with more water and some milk (maybe half mill half water?)
You can also sweeten with sweetened condensed milk instead of sugar if you want it to be extra rich.
Starting with rice flour instead of rice produces almost similar results; overall the slurry will be a little grainy compared to if you start from rice.
Subbing in other types of milk should work great too.
I've never heard of horchata being made from rice, but a quick research and lo and behold, in the Americas it is made from rice instead of nuts? that's crazy to me - sounds kind of like smooth rice pudding or something. I'm sure its still good though
I've had the opposite experience, I've never heard of it being made with nuts. Its more like rice milk than rice pudding.
I've only ever heard of it being made with nuts in bougier American restaurants that are vegan friendly. It's fucking good though, I wouldn't be surprised if the idea originated elsewhere.
That's about what I did. I guess I will just have to practice, oh the woes of having to keep drinking it, so terrible.
What do you feel isn't right about how yours is coming out? For me the texture is really hard to nail down, I just can't get it as fine as I want it, but it's usually good enough that I'm happy with it.
The texture is the issue for me too. I have heard that using a cheesecloth helps but I don't have one.
Oh yep that would do it. I use a wire mesh strainer but it's not fine enough. I should definitely look out for a cheesecloth though.
