Horchata Coffee Drink Explosion

Horchata is a rice-based drink that finds its roots in Mexico, Spain, and Central America. While each country has a slightly different version of the drink, they’re all delicious and share the same overall flavor profile. 

So which Horchata should you use? Honestly, whichever one you can get your hands on or make. 

So What is Horchata, Exactly?

As we mentioned above, there are various versions, but the one we’re referring to is inspired my Mexican horchata and features rice. This particular version contains: 

• Rice (1 cup)
• Cinnamon sticks (2)
• Vanilla (half teaspoon)
• Brown Sugar (1/4 cup)
• Toasted almonds (1/4 cup)
• Filtered water (as much as needed)
• Salt (pinch)

Our Basic Horchata Recipe

Here’s a simple recipe you can use to make your own horchata to use as a base for your delicious JOJO Java horchata coffee drink. 

1. Toast your almonds (a small amount) and set them aside in a bowl
2. Add your rice, salt, vanilla, cinnamon sticks and the rest of the almonds to the bowl
3. Pour in enough filtered water to cover everything
4. Allow all ingredients to soak for no less than 4 hours 
5. Pour your soaked mixture into a blender or food processor and blend
6. Pour your blended mixture through a strainer to get rid of big bits
7. Serve warm, or store in the fridge until chilled

And there you go. You’ve got some horchata. From here, you can pour some into a glass and dust it with some cinnamon. 

But we’re not stopping there. Now onto our delicious JOJO Java coffee drink.
