Ingredients
Method
Directions
- 1
Soaking the Rice
Rinse the long-grain white rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch. Place the rinsed rice in a bowl and add 2 cups of water. Allow the rice to soak for at least 3 hours, or overnight for best results.

Blending Ingredients
After the rice has soaked, drain and discard the soaking water. In a blender, combine the soaked rice, 2 cups of fresh water, and the cinnamon sticks. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and the rice is fully broken down, about 1-2 minutes.

Straining the Mixture
Place a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth over a large bowl and pour the blended mixture into it. Use a spatula to press down and extract as much liquid as possible, discarding the solids left in the strainer.
