Cooking tip (optional):
To make your own cinnamon syrup at home, combine equal parts water and sugar and use 3 cinnamon sticks for every cup of syrup. For example:
In a saucepan, combine 1 cup water and 1 cup sugar over low heat until sugar is fully dissolved. Remove from heat. Add 3 cinnamon sticks. Cover overnight. Remove cinnamon sticks. Chill for use. Use within 2 weeks.

Substitute 1 tablespoon chocolate syrup for hot cocoa mix. In a tall glass, combine water, cold brew liquid pods or concentrate, milk and all 3 syrups (chocolate, vanilla and cinnamon). Stir well. Top with ice. Top with whipped topping. Sprinkle with cocoa powder and ground cinnamon.
