Glorious Cinnamon Popsicles

      I love this recipe SOO MUCH it has a sweet cinnamon aroma traveling throughout the house!!!This is also very easy to make and there is not a lot of cleanup! (...timesaver for less cleanup...) If you have ever tried any Latin food or drinks this one is well known. Its called horchata, this drink is made rice and cinnamon! But this popsicle tastes like horchata and I was VERY VERY excited that it tastes like it.

      I got this recipe from (link down below)*. This was my first time making these and I decided to add "Nina's Touch" to this by having another flavor to it. So instead of the water it called for, I used whole milk. 

     The top picture is actually Creamy Cinnamon Horchata Popsicles* thats what mine look like, the bottom picture is HORCHATA!!!
