This horchata recipe is a simple take on the traditional horchata my grandmother used to make. It’s loaded with all the same flavors of sesame and cinnamon and can be whipped up in minutes! This beverage reminds me of my childhood when I would visit my grandmother and she would be making a large batch of horchata. My mouth would water as I patiently waited for her to finish straining the ingredients. The greatest part? There’s no need to strain anything with this recipe - so you can enjoy it even sooner!
