  1. /this sounds like the answer to my need to find a homemade Horchata that is delicious and I can't wait to try it. Thanks for putting it in.
     
  2. I loved this recipe. The finished drink is so light and refreshing. I had to halve the ingredients since I didn't have a large capacity blender, but that was very easy to do. Thank you for this recipe.
