I've been making a lot of Mexican-style horchata lately. It's such a nice cooling drink when it's hot outside.
I've made it with the rice I normally have in my pantry, which is Trader Joe's white basmati rice. But I was wondering if there was a type of rice that was favored in horchata? Most recipes specify "long grain white rice" and that's about it.
Someone mentioned brown rice which seems like an interesting twist but I am mostly interested in white rice varieties.
