How to Make Cannabis Horchata

Cannabis infused horchata

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups water.
  • 1 cinnamon stick.
  • Ground cinnamon.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract.
  • 1 cup whole milk (or canna milk).
  • 1 cup long-grain white rice (uncooked).
  • ½ cup granulated sugar (or cannasugar).

Tools:

  • Blender.
  • Cheesecloth.
  • Large mixing bowl.
  • Measuring cups and spoons.

Instructions:

1. Prep the rice: First, give the rice a good wash to get rid of any extra starch. Then, dump the rice, cinnamon sticks, and water into a big bowl and let it all soak for at least 6 hours. Overnight is even better.

2. Blend it up: Take out the cinnamon sticks and put them aside. Now, pour the soaked rice and water into a blender. Blend on high until the rice is super fine and the whole mix looks smooth.

3. Strain it: Get a fine-mesh strainer or some cheesecloth and put it over a bowl. Pour the blended mix through, squeezing hard to get as much liquid out as you can. Toss the leftover rice stuff.

4. Sweeten and spice it: Put the strained liquid back in the blender. Add the almond milk, sugar, vanilla, and any extra spices you want, like nutmeg or cloves. Blend again for a sec to make sure everything’s mixed well.

5. Infuse it: Stir in your cannabis infusion. If you’re using cannamilk, use some of it instead of the almond milk. If you’re using tincture or oil, just add the right amount to the blender. Mix it all up really good.

6. Chill and enjoy: Pour the finished horchata into a pitcher and put it in the fridge for at least 2 hours. When you’re ready to drink it, pour it over ice and add a cinnamon stick or a sprinkle of cinnamon on top.

Tips For Better Cannabis Infused Horchata

Making a really good cannabis horchata isn’t just about throwing stuff together. There’s a few things that matter a lot if you want it to taste amazing and actually work.

  • Use Good Stuff: Get the best cinnamon sticks you can find, fresh almond milk, and organic rice. It’ll make a big difference in the flavor and how it feels in your mouth.

  • Get the Dose Right: Use a calculator to figure out how much cannabis to use. You don’t want it too strong or too weak.

  • Chill it Out: Horchata tastes way better cold. Put it in the fridge for at least two hours before you drink it.

  • Blend it Smooth: Blend the whole thing really well before you strain it. This helps break down the rice so it’s nice and creamy.

  • Sweeten it Slow: Start with a little sugar and add more if you need it. The sweetness should go with the cannabis, not overpower it.

  • Try Different Things: If you don’t like cannamilk, try using cannabis tinctures or oils. See what you like best.
