You should try smoking horchata flavored hookah tobacco...now THAT is some awesome stuff.

Can you point me towards a recipe for this? My nephew loves it and making it would be fun.

Horchata kicks butt. It is the perfect accompaniment for spicy foods when cerveza is not an option.

hi caphector, i kind of mixed a bunch of recipes together and to be honest mine did not work out too well. i didnt add enough sugar because i dont like things too sweet but i would recommend adding at least as much sugar as most recipes say, oh and make sure to wash off the rice in several cool water baths before grinding it up! heres one that seems about right, but honestly i'd add sugar to taste and definitely more than what they say
