It's the closest thing I've found to horchata; it tastes delicious. You add as much or as little as you want, depending on how sweet you like it, and then ice to taste.

Been wanting to re-create the horchata latte i got from a local business restaurant and this was pretty close.. recipe: 2 shots of espresso, 1 tablespoon of Torino brown sugar cinnamon flavor, and horchata milk to choice (i dont like to much milk on coffee so mine was about 1/4 cup) …. Side note if you want it extra sweet dont add more torani but add brown sugar !!
