Horchata (Cinnamon Rice Milk)

A great milky beverage that contains no milk!

I tried this at an authentic Mexican get-together a few years ago, and I've been drinking it every chance I get ever since.

There are many variations, but this is a basic version that satisfies my cravings. Enjoy!Submitted by: MUSICTURNSMEON

Cafechata

This refreshing frozen treat is a take on one of my favorite sugury summer beverage: Horchata! A good instant coffee adds richness and makes this a great stand-in for the overly sweet frozen frappes served up at your neighborhood coffee shop. For a twist, substituting in one of the flavored Starbucks Via's and omitting the agave gives you a whole new flavor for the same calories!Submitted by: BIGGERINREALIFE
