Ingredients

6 servings

1 cup long-grain white rice, rinsed
2 cinnamon sticks
6 cup water
½ cup whole milk
Chef's tip
Use the same amount of soy milk as regular milk. It's one of the most reliable milk swaps and works in almost any recipe, including sauces, custards, and baked goods. In cold drinks or uncooked dishes you may notice a mild soy flavor.
⅓ cup granulated sugar, or to taste
1 tsp vanilla extract

For serving

ice, for serving
ground cinnamon, for dusting (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the rinsed rice, cinnamon sticks, and 4 cups of water in a large bowl or pitcher. Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight, until the rice has softened and the water is lightly cloudy and fragrant with cinnamon.
2
Discard the cinnamon sticks. Working in batches if needed, transfer the soaked rice and all of its soaking liquid to a blender. Blend on high speed for 2 full minutes, until the mixture is as smooth as possible and the liquid looks opaque and milky.
