Is awesome. Unfortunately I can't quite get my homemade recipes right. Tried 3 different ones so far. Until then I am paying $3 for a half gallon carton.

I know, frio historio amigo.

That is all.

I too am a fan of this drink.  The mexican girls I know hate it.  They like the DEW.

They are just some from google. I either have issues straining the thoroughly with the cheese cloth or the rice flavor is too weak. If anyone has some good tips and recipes I'd appreciate it.

For me it's right up there with Thai Tea in deliciosity.  Does anyone know good ways to make them alcoholic?

I found out my tiny mexican place uses powdered mix and adds some spices.

This local place makes all their salsa's and chili's from scratch including the Horchata.

However it does feel like you have crossed the border when you enter the establishment.  It is a mexican restaurant for Mexicans not texmex watered down crap.

Champurrado (when made right) is a close second.

How the hell did I go so long in life without knowing about this delicious beverage???? haha

Never heard of it before now.  Just googled it and still have a question - is it served hot or cold?

I usually get it at little hole in the wall Mexican joints where I typically have to use spanish to order.

I first had it at a place that my coworkers were afraid to enter. It was awesome and helped cool off the hot food. They make it from a mix that is sold at Mexican grocery stores. Made it at home from said mix. No one else liked it.

I've seen it at Mexican restaurants, but that stuff looks nasty, especially in those see-thru dispensers.

Just polished off a glass of that myself. Excellent after floating down the creek through my town.

horchata is amazing. IIRC it's made by soaking rice overnight straining, then adding other stuff. Wish I had paid attention...

other ingredients include vanilla and cinnamon

They say grind the rice up in a coffee grinder, soak in water overnight with a little cinnamon, strain in cheese cloth, add sugar, vanila, almond extract.

So they say
