About Beverage, Horchata, as served in restaurant
Horchata is a sweet, milky-looking Mexican agua fresca made from soaked rice (often with cinnamon and a little vanilla), blended, strained and sweetened. The version served in restaurants is typically rice-based and dairy-free, which is why it tastes creamy yet carries very little protein or fat.
Per 100 grams it provides about 54 calories, 11.5 grams of carbohydrate including 9.4 grams of sugar, with only a trace of protein (0.5 gram) and fat (0.7 gram) and small amounts of calcium and potassium. A 12-ounce glass (about 360 grams) comes to roughly 194 calories and 34 grams of sugar, so it drinks more like a dessert than a glass of water.
Horchata is refreshing and naturally dairy-free, which makes it a welcome option for people avoiding milk, but it is a sweetened drink rather than a source of nutrition — most of its calories are added sugar. Recipes vary widely, and some are sweeter or include milk or condensed milk, which raises the calories further. Enjoyed as an occasional treat alongside a meal, it fits fine; as an everyday thirst-quencher, water is the lighter choice.
