Instructions

  1. Pour the milk and cream into a heavy-based pan, then heat over medium heat.
  2. Add the sugar, vanilla and cinnamon, then stir until fully dissolved.
  3. Let it simmer for a few minutes without boiling, until the surface starts to tremble.
  4. Whisk quickly to create a light foam, then pour into four glasses or cups.
  5. Sprinkle with cinnamon and serve straight away, warm, with slices of bread.

Variations and tips

Chocolate version. Add the cocoa powder with the sugar for a richer drink, popular with children.
