Ingredients

  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 whole cinnamon stick
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon sugar

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small saucepan, combine the 2 cups milk and 1 cinnamon stick. Heat over medium until steaming, about 5 minutes, but do not let it boil.

  2. 2

    Stir in the 1 tablespoon sugar and 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Continue heating for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the milk is fragrant.

  3. 3

    Remove from heat and let steep for 5 minutes to deepen the cinnamon flavor.

  4. 4

    Remove the cinnamon stick. Pour the milk into a mug and sprinkle with a little extra ground cinnamon if desired. Serve warm.
