Rice milk

Tweet

Has any one tried milk made from rice? I did the other day. I found that I like it. My grandson said it tasted sour to him. I think that is because he really doesn't like to try new things. I want to try to make some. Rice is a lot cheaper than cows milk and would not have the antibiotics and hormones in it that cows milk does. I have found a recipe that I think I would like to try * rinse 2 cups of rice (to clean it) * pour 4 cups of boiling water over rice and let it * soak for 1-2 hours * blend 1 cup of soaked rice with 2 1/2 cups of * water (can be cold water) Blend rice to a slurry, not a completely smooth liquid. Pour into a pot & repeat with the rest of the rice. Bring to a boil & then reduce to low heat simmer for 20 minutes. Line colander with nylon tricot or a few layers of cheesecloth. Pour rice mixture into colander with a bowl under colander. Another 1 cup of water (or less or more) can be poured over the rice. Press with the back of a large spoon twist nylon & squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Has any one especially vegetarians made their own rice milk. if you do how do you make yours?
