Cheaper und much better than store-bought. When I started to make rice milk from scratch, I used 1/3 of arborio rice. Now we prefer the taste of sprouted sweet brown rice milk or brown basmati rice milk.

Ingredients:
50 g Rice
1000 g Water

Method:

• Pulverise rice for 1 min./speed 10
• Add water and warm for 7 min./70°C/speed 4
• Blend slowly from speed 4-8 for 40 sec.
• Strain through cheese cloth or nutmilk bag and cool before refrigerating

Variation:
-sweeten milk with 2-3 soaked dates, 30 g rice syrup or honey
- add 10 g lecithin, almonds or tahini
- 1 Tsp. coconut oil
- use over night soaked or sprouted rice
