Recipe - Rude Health Horchata Porridge

Horchata is a creamy and sweet drink from the Spanish city of Valencia. Milk is the main ingredient, but can easily be replaced with a naturally sweet dairy-alternative such as Tiger Nut Drink. The flavour of the drink makes for a lovely fruity and almost tropical flavour when mixed with vanilla, banana and cinnamon in this Horchata inspired porridge.

A favourite pre-ride fuel.

• 1 cup Tiger Nut Drink (or ½ Tiger Nut Drink ½ water for less sweet porridge)

Optional toppings:

Method

1. Combine oats, mashed banana, cinnamon, vanilla and Tiger Nut Drink in a pan
