Ooh horchata is soo good this makes me want to make some
I DOWN THAT SHIT FASTER THAN SONIC SPEED
So, horchata is bomb as fuck but my favorite Mexican place also made fresh-squeezed limeade and I’ve never had better limeade and I fucking love limeade. The shit you get from the store has a weird bitter aftertaste that fresh squeezed does not, either that or they just dumped so much sugar in the bitterness was fully hidden. However, I don’t think that’s the case because it’s really rare that I suck on a lime and taste bitterness.
Anyway, fresh horchata, agua de Jamaica, and limeade are all fucking delicious.
YES LIMEADE SO
DELISH LIMEADE
IS THE HORCHATA
OF THE DAYTIME
HORCHATA IS THE NIGHT
SAUCE OF THE SLEEPING
HOURSwhat a post
It was an aneurysm or a stroke.
I was so confused what the fuck a limeade was and forgot not everyone calls them lemons. You can just squeeze them at home. Don’t even need to add sugar unless you really like sweetness. Way better than yellow lemonade.
I’d make them everyday but limes are too expensive to be doing that
Edit: I have just discovered Mexicans have their own special variety of limes that are sweet instead of sour. Explains those misshapen limes I’ve seen in stores before.
Wait, where are you that doesn’t normally have limes? They’re a little green citrus and absolutely amazing.
Latino land.
Lemon is what we call limes. Lemons are just referred to as yellow lemons. If you see any lemon flavored food in Spanish, chances are it has a lime to indicate it. Don’t ask me why, just the way things are.
in Spanish
Not in Spain lmao.
Hence why I said Latino.
I think that I’m like very mildly allergic to cinnamon because I can’t have it in large quantities :(
Horchata sets my mouth on fire in a way that hot sauce wishes it could
You might just have an issue with Cassia cinnamon. It’s more commonly available, but it’s dangerous even in small quantities. You might try Ceylon cinnamon instead.

Exceeding the upper limit for coumarin is easily possible if you are consuming a lot of cassia cinnamon. In many cases, just 1-2 teaspoons could bring someone over the daily limit.
In rodents, coumarin is known to cause kidney, liver and lung damage. It may even cause cancer. In humans, there are isolated incidents of similar effects (11Trusted Source, 12Trusted Source).
To be fair, 1-2 tsps is a lot of cinnamon.
You probably use a lot more than that in homemade Horchata, but also that’s just the recommended limit. OP might be more sensitive than most and can only tolerate much smaller quantities. They also specifically said they can’t have it in large quantities
In an entire batch probably, but not in a serving (or two or three), unless y’all are wilding. I’d be belching cinnamon for a week if I had that much in one day, but maybe that’s just me, lol.
This is up there with being allergic to pineapple. Suuuuuucks.
oh no! im so sorry to hear this :(
Would
raw, next question
I’ve been making homemade atole lately and I think I like it better than horchata. Same sort of spice mix just with some fucking masa as well. It is incredible. It replaced egg nog for me this holiday season.
I like snorflejuice better than my usual fizzlebop lately. Just add a bit of zesty kick, with a swirl of whimsy and a sprinkle of giggleberries!
“Haha other languages are so funny, i love being ignorant its the best”
Horchata, jamaica, or agua fresca. All are excellent. Horchata sits heavy though, so it makes me sleepy. Maybe if it was caffeinated it wouldn’t be such a bad influence?
caffeinated horchata might actually fix me :3
Real
Thanks for the inspiration, making an horchata latte this afternoon.
How about a vanilla chai horchata?
god no. absolutely not drinking that. i would be inhaling it.
horchata is so freaking yummers
MEGA GULP
i have never heard of this thing and wikipedia lists like 18 different varieties, one of which is apparently bright red.
but it sounds like… sweetened almond milk?
The Mexican version is what’s most commonly drunk in the US, which just tastes like sweetened milk with cinnamon to me.
But Spanish horchata (the original) is way better. It’s basically a nut milk made with tiger nuts and it tastes awesome. I’ve tried so hard to find tiger nuts but they’re impossible to get where I live :(On first read, I assumed you were referring to literal tiger testicles

Here comes a feeling you thought you’d forgotten.
Legit haven’t had horchata in years for some reason. Next time I’m at the taqueria, I’m grabbing one for sure.
