Learn in this article how you can easily make your own rice milk with just a few ingredients. Any type of rice is suitable for making rice milk, but you should make sure to use brown rice, as it still contains all the healthy nutrients. With store-bought rice milk, additives such as calcium, flavorings or sugar are often added. In other words, there’s often not much that’s really healthy left in the store-bought rice drink. So if you make your own rice milk, you can be sure that it contains only good things.
You can use the rice milk in many ways in the kitchen. For example, it tastes very good with our healthy crunchy muesli with wild berries or rice milk is also very pleasant in taste in cereal coffee.
Important to note: Before you cook the brown rice, soak it for 8-24 hours. This not only reduces the cooking time considerably, but also reduces the amount of phytic acid.
