Ingredients
- 1 cup white rice
- 5 cups water
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk 14 ounces
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Ice for serving
- Ground cinnamon for garnish, optional
Instructions
- Rinse the rice under running water until the water runs clear. Drain.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, cinnamon sticks, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until the rice is very soft and mushy, about 30 to 40 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let the rice cool completely. Remove the cinnamon sticks.
- In a blender, combine the cooked rice mixture, whole milk, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
- Refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours. Serve over ice and sprinkle with ground cinnamon, if desired.
