Loved sipping our vegan horchata? Here’s your own kit to make at home with pre-measured ingredients and to enjoy at your next meal or gathering. All you need is a few kitchen items and a little patience while the ingredients steep overnight. Makes 12 servings.
Kit includes:
1 pack Jasmine Rice
1 pack almonds*
1 pack cinnamon stick
1 simple sugar pack
2 boba pack (makes 4 servings each; 8 servings total)
8 bamboo fiber straws
Other ingredients needed:
Drinking water
1 cup whole milk (or any milk of your choice)
2 tspn vanilla extract
1/2 cup agave
Directions:
1. First prepare your simple syrup. Boil 1 cup of water and shut off heat. Pour 1 sugar pack into the hot water until dissolved to make a syrup. Put aside.
2. Next add your pre-measured ingredients of rice, almonds, and cinnamon stick into a blender. Add 1 cup of water and blend altogether for 30-60 seconds to make a gritty paste. If it’s too thick, add another 1/4 cup of water and blend for 5 seconds.
3. In a pitcher or container, add milk, simple syrup**, vanilla extract, 8 cups of drinking water, and the blended paste. Stir well and steep overnight in refrigerator (8-10 hours).
4. After steeping, stir first and then strain out the solid contents to discard. Enjoy your homemade Jasmine Horchata!
