What Is Horchata?
Horchata is traditionally made by soaking rice and cinnamon for hours, then straining and sweetening the milky liquid that results. Though it's now a beloved Mexican staple — poured at every taqueria from Mexico City to Los Angeles — horchata actually originated in North Africa and Spain, where it was first made with tiger nuts. When the recipe traveled to the Americas, rice and cinnamon replaced the tiger nuts, creating the creamy, sweet, refreshing drink we know today.
Your customers already know it — they're just looking for the best version, served quickly.
