Horchata Smoothie

Recipe #67261 | 5 min | 5 min prep | SERVES 2 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: princess buttercup

A Quick and Easy twist on Horchata (Mexican Rice Milk) and Smoothies. It makes a nice creamy drink that is perfect for breakfast or as a sweet treat poured over ice on warm day. (I shortcut this recipe by using my recipe for vanilla yogurt. Also equally yummy adjusted fat free/sugar free)

    This is fabulous! I made it as a beverage to go with a Mexican themed dinner of burritos and rice and beans. It was the perfect accompaniment and sweet enough that I didn't even want dessert.
