Preparation

• In a pot, pour the milk and add the cinnamon stick. Heat over medium until the milk is warm, but not boiling. Remove the cinnamon stick and set the milk aside.
• In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks until the mixture lightens in color and becomes creamy.
• Slowly pour the warm milk over the egg mixture while continuously stirring to avoid cooking the eggs.
• Pour this mixture into a blender, add the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and rum. Blend well and pour the mixture into a pot to heat until it thickens.
• Remove from heat and let it cool. Once cooled, add the vanilla extract and alcohol (if using). Stir well.
• Pour the rompope into sterilized bottles and store in the refrigerator. It can be served cold or at room temperature.
• Remember to shake well before serving!
