Variations for Horchata with Strawberries
While the above steps outline the basic method, you can always personalize your strawberry horchata. Consider these variations to tailor it to your taste:
- Blend your strawberries: You can make horchata de fresa by blending strawberries for a unique flavor and texture. Just add the horchata and strawberries (you could use frozen strawberries here) to the blender and blend until creamy; strain if you need to.
- Adjust the Sweetness: Feel free to modify the amount of sugar based on how sweet you like your drinks. Agave syrup or honey are great alternatives for a different kind of sweetness.
- Boost the Strawberry Flavor: Add more strawberries or a splash of strawberry syrup for an even stronger strawberry taste.
- Make paletas. Make strawberry horchata paletas by pouring horchata into the paleta molds and diced strawberries.
