Ingredients:
- 500 g of almonds
- 50 g of starch flour

Preparation: Steep the almonds in water for a few hours. After this time, drain them and grind them into a paste. Add a litre of water and filter everything through a cotton serviette, pressing it hard to extract all the milk from the almonds. Take some of this milk and dissolve the starch. Add the lemon rind and cinnamon to the paste and heat. When it is hot, add the milk with the starch and let it boil. Once boiled, strain and put into small serving dishes. Serve cold.
