Preparation

Step 1

In blender, place all ingredients except ice, whipped cream and cinnamon sticks. Cover; blend on high speed until mixed. Add ice; cover and blend until slushy. Top individual servings with dollop of whipped cream and cinnamon stick, if desired.
Makes 4 servings.

Tip: Most home blenders don’t handle large ice cubes well. To crush ice cubes, place them in a heavy-duty plastic food-storage bag and seal the bag. Place the bag on a cutting board; cover with a kitchen towel. Crush the cubes with a hammer or rolling pin.
