Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups Melon Seeds and Endocarp (everything in the melon seed cavity)
8 cups Water
Honey to taste
1 stick cinnamon
Ice

Steps:

  • 1. Scoop out the insides of a melon, including seeds, strings, and liquid. 2. Add water (or the equivalent in melon flesh) and liquefy in the blender. 3. Adding melon flesh will make the drink less like horchata and more like a fresh fruit liquado, but it’s still delicious. 4. Transfer to a jar and add the cinnamon stick. 5. Add honey to a little warm water to dissolve, and sweeten horchata to taste. 6. Refrigerate overnight, if possible. 7. Strain though a fine mesh strainer. 8. Stir and pour into glasses over ice, garnished with a little shredded cinnamon.
