While using sweetened condensed milk won't save you the time it takes to soak your rice, it will still save you some effort in your horchata-making process. You can even use this trick in dairy-free versions of horchata — there are dairy-free sweetened condensed milks out there made from coconut and oats. You could also try regular almond milk instead; this would give the drink an added nutty taste, and there are horchata recipes that include almonds as well as rice. If you go this route, however, your horchata might be a bit less creamy.
If you're not sold on buying a whole new ingredient just for one recipe, never fear — sweetened condensed milk can work wonders with other beverages as well. Add it to iced coffee to make a delicious latte, or try your hand at making Thai iced coffee or Thai iced tea, which often feature sweetened condensed milk as part of their recipes. Another popular creamy drink that uses sweetened condensed milk is coquito, a Puerto Rican beverage that is often compared to eggnog. Coquito, like horchata, is served chilled and flavored with cinnamon and vanilla, but it also includes some nutmeg — perfect for another spiced, sweet treat.
