 Pistachio Horchata

Directions:

  1. In a dry skillet over medium-low heat, add the rice, pistachios, cinnamon stick, and cloves, and toast until fragrant for about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and put it in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Add the hot water, set it aside, and let it sit for 5 hours. The water should be hot but not boiling since we don't want to cook the rice.
  3. Pour the mixture into a blender and blend for 30 seconds; do it in small batches if necessary.
  4. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer or coffee filter (you do not want a chalky or grainy horchata). 
  5. Mix in the cold water, vanilla extract, and condensed milk. 
  6. Serve over ice and garnish with chopped pistachios and freshly grated nutmeg.
