SERVINGS
Ingredients
- 12 cups water, plus more for blending
- 3 cups uncooked long-grain white rice
- 1-1/2 cups granulated sugar, plus more to taste
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 3 (4-inch) cinnamon sticks
- Ice
Directions
- Combine 12 cups of water, the rice, 1-1/2 cups of sugar, almonds, and cinnamon sticks in a slow cooker, cover, and cook on low for 2-1/2 hours. Remove the cinnamon sticks.
- Working in batches, transfer the contents of the slow cooker to a blender. Cover and blend on high speed until the mixture is nearly smooth (the mixture will still have small bits of rice); add more water if needed. Strain the mixture, taste, and add more sugar if needed.
- Serve over ice.
