**Steep time 5-7 days**
Growing up with a family of 5, mom in school full-time and my father a salesman supporting all of us meant we didn't have a lot of money. That all would change later in life when my mother graduated, but that wasn't until I was about 14. Up until that point, there was weekly trips to the fire station for that good government cheese and peanut butter. Most of the times my milk came in a box so seeing my dad putting water in my cereal was normal. However, when we did have real milk breakfast was a little different...It wasn't rice crispys, but actual rice.
You fill your bowl up with cooked rice, add a few scoops of sugar to it and then cover the top with cinnamon, now top it off with some actual milk! As odd as this sounds, it was so good. Good enough that I still eat it to this day every once in a while.

Rice - This is Wayne's Yeo layer. Once I tried it I knew I had to recreate this breakfast from my early days. No other flavor I had recreates rice like this does and FE did it well. It's not grainy and comes with a nice cream note already. Wayne did very good with this layer, it only needed minor adjustments to get it where I wanted.

Milk- Like I mentioned, Yeo already has a nice dairy note built in so I didn't need to do much more. I added 1% Bav cream just to thicken it up a bit and also give a bit of sugar flavor. Yes, sugar has an actual flavor! If you ever scooped the sugar up from the bottom of a bowl of milk you know what I mean. It has a slight almost light caramel note to it so that back note I get from bav cream helps in that sense. I also put a touch of FLV cream in here just to build that base up. FA fresh cream could be used as a sub at 1%, but I get a milkier cream from FLV. The real trick here is the FA coconut at .5%. It adds zero coconut flavor, but rather it turns this dairy note from just a cream to whole milk. If you want to see what I mean, smell the bottle of FA coconut then go smell your milk...it's scary how close they are and this works perfectly.

The final touch here is the Rich Cinnamon. This stuff is just like ground cinnamon, but it's also very strong. I tried it with CDS but it just wasn't hitting that raw cinnamon note and brought too many distractions to the profile. When I make this in RL, I dust the entire top with cinnamon so there's a pretty forward cinn note in this. For the juice version, two drops in a 30ml is more than enough. If you want to cut it back you can go with just one drop but I think it's best with 2.

There you have it, my Broke Breakfast and a trip down memory lane!
If you have the stuff, mix it up...you'll enjoy this one!
