  1. In a large bowl, combine rice, almonds, cinnamon, and 2 1/2 c. tap water. Cold, cover with plastic wrap, and chill overnight.
  2. Pour mix into a blender. Add in sugar, and blend on high till the mix is as smooth as possible (there still may be a hint of grittiness). Strain through a very fine strainer, pressing with a spoon till only a dryish pulp remains; throw away pulp. Transfer to a pitcher, and stir in lowfat milk. Taste, and add in more sugar if necessary.
  3. For the Prickly Pear Puree: Place in a small food processor fitted with the steel blade. Puree till smooth. Strain through a medium sieve.
  4. Serve horchata in tall glasses over ice. Drizzle in prickly-pear puree. Garnish with cantaloupe and pecans. Stir gently till mix turns pink.
  5. This recipe yields 6 servings.
  6. Comments: Although it's one of the most popular - not to mention nutritious - beverages in Mexico, the drink known as horchata actually originated in the Arab world, where it was made from grnd tiger nut. The Spaniards brought it to Mexico, where today it is commonly made with grnd rice, almonds, and lowfat milk.
  7. Also called cactus pears and cactus fruit, prickly pears are egg-shaped fruits of the prickly-pear cactus; they come in a variety of colors and have juicy flesh like a watermelon's. When selecting prickly pears, make sure their skin yields slightly to the touch - a sign they are ripe and ready to be eaten.
