Directions
- In a large bowl, combine the rice, cinnamon, and almonds. Cover with 2 cups of water at room temperature. Cover for at least 4 hours so that the rice softens slightly
Strain the water from the cinnamon, rice, and almond mixture
In the carafe of a blender, blend the rice mixture with coconut milk and cookie butter, sugar, and vanilla until smooth and the grains of rice are completely ground
Strain the resulting liquid into a pitcher, and mix well until everything is well combined. Add the remaining water, and serve with ice and a cinnamon stick
