As a kid, did you ever add extra milk to your Cocoa Puffs or Rice Krispies so you could have cereal-infused milk to drink after?
No shame if you still do it now, but the adult alternative to that is horchata, a lightly spiced, milk-based drink that originated in Spain. It hits the same creamy, savory notes that cereal milk offers, but with the added bonus of not feeling silly enjoying it any time of the day.
Horchata belongs to agua fresca (fresh water), a category of nonalcoholic drinks that blend water with fruit, flowers, milk or grains to create light refreshments. They are perfect for summer but can also be enjoyed in early autumn.
