    Honduran Horchata is a refreshing drink that is popular in many Latin countries. The type of seeds or rice that is used along with various spices is what makes it unique to a given location.  In Honduras it is made usually with ground rice although in the south it is sometimes made with morro seeds. It was served with our Honduran meal and it was the perfect compliment to the meal.  It is lightly spiced with essence of cinnamon and vanilla, sugar and milk.  A very easy recipe to make you just need to plan ahead to let the ground rice flavor the water.  Enjoy!
