3 Reviews of Agua De Arroz (Mexican Rice Water)

From: dksbook

On Aug 26, 2005

Here in South Texas, we call this "Horchata" - the "H" is silent. We sometimes make it with milk, too, and often freeze it into popsicles. Some of us like small bits of the rice to be noticeable, and sometimes we just stir powdered cinnamon into the finished drink. And sometimes, we add a bit of rum, which goes great with a strong cinnamon flavor!

    This is actually a good recipe - the texture is there, but the flavor needed something. I added some vanilla, and I think it probably would have done well with some almonds. I'll definitely make it again, though, as it's so incredibly easy and workable. Thanks!

    I think what you are trying to make is "Horchata" like dksbook said. I'm mexican born and raised and I also add milk and sometimes a little bit of vanilla. You have the right idea =)
