Hot Vanilla
Serving Size:   2

14 oz whole milk
2 oz whipping cream
1/2 vanilla bean
1 1/2 tsps sugar or to taste
ground canela or cinnamon for garnish

In a heavy saucepan, combine the ingredients and warm over low
heat.  When small bubbles appear around the sides of the pan, remove
it from the heat and let the mixture sit at room temperature for
15 to 20 minutes.  Place the pan back on the stove and rewarm the
mixture, whisking it briefly to redistribute the skin that forms
on the milk's surface.  Remove the vanilla bean half, scrape out
the seeds with a sharp knife, and return the seeds to the milk.
Pour the vanilla milk into two 8-ounce mugs and top with sprinklings
of canela.  Drink hot.
