Ingredients
6cupsof milk
3cinnamon sticks
1cupsof sugar, divided
3cupsof pineapple cut into tiny cubes
1quarts[1 lt] of water(may need more)
2teaspoonsof vanilla extract
1/2teaspoonof lime or orange zest
Instructions
In a thick-bottom pot combine milk, cinnamon and 1/2 cup of sugar and boil over medium heat until the milk has reduced to a quarter of the original volume.
Remove from heat and chill (after letting it cool down to room temperature).
In another pot combine pineapple with water, vanilla, lime peels, and the remaining sugar until the pineapple is really soft, with the consistency of a jam (add more water as it becomes necessary).
Let all the liquid evaporate and remove from the heat, then chill.
Mix the milk and pineapple (both should be chilled, or the milk will curdle). Keep and serve chilled.
Notes
As more than one person complained that the milk will curdle, I have made some changes to the recipes to prevent that from happening.
