Nguyên liệu

1 cup uncooked white rice

2 cinnamon sticks

12 ounce can evaporated milk

12 ounce can sweetened condensed milk

8 cups of warm water (divided)

Sugar to taste

Ground cinnamon to garnish (optional)

½ teaspoon vanilla (optional)

Hướng dẫn

Place the rice in a colander and rinse under cold water. Place the rice, cinnamon sticks (see note #1 below) and 4 cups of water into a bowl. Cover the bowl and refrigerate overnight (preferably) or a minimum of 4 hours.

Once you're ready to blend the rice, remove most of the cinnamon sticks but it's okay to leave small pieces with the rice.

Blend the rice in two separate batches by adding 1/2 of the rice & water with some of the cinnamon stick left behind. Puree until it's very smooth and forms a watery paste like texture. About 4 minutes long.

Using a very fine strainer (or some cheese cloth) pour the blended mixture over a pitcher. Strain out as much liquid as possible, pushing on the solids with a spatula or spoon.

Repeat this process for the rest of the rice, water & cinnamon mixture.

Stir in the canned milks, vanilla, and the additional 4 cups of water. Stir well until everything is incorporated.

Taste and add sugar or water if needed according to taste.

Chill and stir well before serving over ice. It's normal to have some rice paste sink to the bottom of the jar/glass. Just stir before you serve and enjoy!
