This sweet Horchata is a refreshing dairy-free milky drink with a base of rice and cashew nuts. It's a traditional Mexican beverage with a hint of cinnamon that makes a great stand-in for a dairy-free smoothie or milkshake. Just soak rice and nuts overnight, then blend up in the morning. Serve over ice with a fruity garnish.
