Rice + Water, bring to a boil, drain off the excess water, then chill until ice cold.

Delicious!

is it Korean? I'm Korean and the american description, Rice Water is probably referring to Syk Hye. (Sweet Rice Nectar)

It's sooooooooo good.. especially during hot summer days... a nice cold tall glass of syk hye.. mmmm.. and chewy rice pieces..

What N8magic is referring to is different from Syk Hye. That's just chilled rice + water which is known as Ssal Juk, and is not sweet.

That sounds interesting, is it alcoholic by chance? I'd think it'd take longer then 5-6 hours to become that way, but you never know :)

I don't know about it being Korean. They serve it at the Mexican joints here in Chicago.

I guess it backfired, didn't it? DIDN'T IT?!?! Calming down now.... I know there is a rice type alcohal that is often combined with fruit nectars to become a really good drink, but is really crappy without the nectar. I never heard of rice water though. I figure its just that dirty crap water that I drain outa my bowl when washing my rice before popping it in the cooker.

you can find it in a lot of chinese places - it's kinda like fermented rice that has a sweet alcohol-y taste, except it's not really alcoholic, just has a pungent sweet taste at the end. Basically, you buy a jar of that stuff, you put 1/2 cup - 1 cup into a pot, add in 2-3 cups water, and voila you have this sweet hot soup. Chill if you want it cold, but i prefer it hot on cold mornings.

all the different flavored sojus they sell at korean bars are crap. nothing but watered down soju, with artificial flavoring. if you're gonna drink soju, do it the right way. straight from the bottle! (i drank 2 bottles last time, got drunk real fast)

Non-flavored soju tastes like crap. It hits you hard, but certainly not fast.
