Organic White Quick Cook Rice

1

Combine rice and hot water in a large bowl or jug. Soak for 1½ hours.
2

Pour the rice together with the water, maple syrup or Medjool dates (if using) and vanilla (if using) into a high-speed blender. Blend for 2 mins on high speed, until rice grains are very small but haven’t disappeared completely.
3

Double up a nut milk bag and pour the milk through it, repeating this step 2-3 times, until most of the solids are removed.
4

If making rice milk ice cubes, add rice milk and blue spirulina to a jug and whisk until uniform. Pour into an ice cube tray and freeze until solid.
5

To make the latte, combine blue spirulina, ground cinnamon or cardamom, vanilla, and maple syrup and 2 tbsp of rice milk in a glass. Whisk until uniform. Add the blue spirulina ice cubes (if using) and pour rice milk on top until the glass is full. Serve immediately.
