Tips for Making Instant Pot Arroz Con Leche

Rinsing the rice before cooking is not mandatory, but it will result in a silkier texture.
This recipe is vegan, but you can easily adapt it to be non-vegan by using regular whole milk and regular condensed milk. Other dairy milks work too.
Enjoy it as dessert, or why not have it for breakfast like I love to do. It is suuuuuch a delicious way to start the day.

You can change up the spices by swapping the cinnamon for cardamom (which I love) or adding ground ginger and cloves, which is especially lovely for serving at Christmas.
Adding some fresh lemon or orange zest provides a bright and fresh citrus flavour.
