Homemade Rice Milk

From Recipezaar

I haven't tried this one out yet, but I'm pretty excited to because I've always wanted to learn to make my own rice milk [for food storage purposes] because I don't like dried milk (I'd rather drink this stuff).

Serves 2-4

Ingredients:
4 cups water
1/2 c uncooked rice (white or brown may be used) OR 1 c cooked rice (white or brown may be used)
1 vanilla bean OR 1/2 t vanilla extract

Directions:
1. Cook rice, vanilla bean or extract and water until very soft.
2. Let cool, remove vanilla bean (if using) and put mixture into blender or food processor.
3. Blend until very smooth.
4. Let stand for at least 45 minutes, then strain through cheese cloth.
5. Tada! Rice milk! Enjoy!
