- •2 cups rice milk
- •¾ cup white sugar, or to taste
- •½ cup cinnamon whiskey (such as Fireball®)
- •¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

- Grind rice finely using a coffee or spice grinder. Transfer to a large bowl; add cinnamon sticks. Pour in warm water. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit, 8 hours to overnight.
- Strain rice mixture through a sieve set over a bowl. Press against the rice with a wooden spoon to squeeze out as much liquid as possible; discard rice. Stir rice milk and sugar into strained liquid to make horchata.
- Measure 2 1/2 cups horchata into another bowl. Add cinnamon whiskey, cayenne pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Pour into ice pop molds.
- Freeze until solid, at least 12 hours.
- Run molds under warm water to release ice pops. Sprinkle with an additional dash of cinnamon before serving.
