Husk the fresh corn and cut the kernels off the cob.

Blend the corn kernels with water until smooth.

Strain the blended mixture through a fine sieve into a pot, discarding the solids.

Add milk, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt to the corn liquid.

Stir the mixture over medium heat until it begins to simmer.

In a separate bowl, mix cornstarch with a small amount of water to create a slurry.

Add the cornstarch slurry to the pot, stirring continuously until thickened, about 5-7 minutes.

Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving.
