Directions:
Wash and peel the pineapple. Save the peel for later. Slice the pineapple into 1/2 inch pieces. Choose only 3 slices for the smoothie.
In a pot with 6 cups of water, add the cinnamon sticks, the peel and the rice. Let it cook for half an hour until the rice is soft.
After half an hour, turn off the heat and remove the peel and the cinnamon sticks, so that only the rice mixture and its liquid are left to cool.
Let it cool.
Now add it to the blender with the half teaspoon of vanilla, the half cup of sugar, the can of evaporated milk and the 12 ice cubes. Liquefy.
Enjoy!
