This simple recipe is a modern take on traditional horchata, elevated with a shot of espresso for a smooth, bold depth. The sweetness comes entirely from dates, a natural and wholesome alternative to refined sugar. Cashew nuts blend in to create a rich, creamy texture without the need for dairy. Finally, Koatji’s koji rice adds a subtle umami note while staying true to horchata’s original rice-based roots, enhancing both flavor and authenticity.
