Pour the sweetened condensed milk into a pot.

Fill the empty condensed milk can with milk of your choice and pour it into the pot.

Add 1/2 cup of very cold water into a bowl and mix in the powdered gelatin until it absorbs the water and forms a solid mass.

Add 1/2 cup of very hot water to the hydrated gelatin and mix until dissolved.

Place jello molds in the freezer for easier unmolding later.

Combine all ingredients in the pot: dissolved gelatin, evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon stick.

Mix well to ensure everything is integrated and simmer for 1-2 minutes without boiling.

Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.

Pour the mixture into the jello molds and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Once set, remove from the mold and serve, optionally garnished with fruit.
