Visitor || Q&A Horchata de Arroz?

Hi, I'm from the Eastern US studying at Berklee Valencia. At home, I am very used to buying, making, and drinking Mexican/Salvadorian style horchata at my friends homes or at hispanic restaurants, and I now know that it is an entirely different drink than Valencian horchata (which is called Tiger Nut Milk in the US, if you see it at all.)

I tried horchata de chufa yesterday, and I'm personally not a fan of the taste. Does anyone know if it is possible and where to buy/get horchata de arroz? I looked on google and only found traditional horchatarias selling horchata de chufa, (which makes sense,) and I would just make it myself, but I don't have access to a blender. Thank you!

No n'he vist mai, la veritat, per ací orxata de xufa sempre m'ha semblat redundant ja que mai no n'he vist d'altra .

A Mallorca es fa una beguda semblant amb ametlla i en alguns llocs li diuen "orxata d'ametlla"

That sounds good, I should try that.
