Warm 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon and rice in skillet over medium heat until you can smell them toasting. Then place them into your dry blender jar to grind into a fine powder.

For Blendtec: Press the SPEED UP Button to Speed 9 and run for 50 seconds (full cycle)

For Vitamix: Can use wet jar or special dry grains jar. Select VARIABLE, speed 1. Turn on machine and quickly increase speed to Variable 10, then to high. Grind to desired degree of fineness, about 1 minute.

Add the vanilla, milks, and water to the blender jar. If you do not plan on straining the mixture, you can use 3 cups of water and 1 cup of ice to ensure a cold beverage.

For Blendtec: Run SMOOTHIES cycle.

For Vitamix: Blend on HIGH for 30 seconds or until thoroughly combined.

Pour over a cheesecloth or through a strainer if desired into a punch bowl.
