This drink is as simple as it gets……..and tastes absolutely refreshing anytime of day or night! It is an easy way to use those empty vanilla bean pods that you scraped the seeds out of for another recipe. If you want to make this milk drink and don’t have any empty vanilla bean pod, you may cut a fresh vanilla bean in half ‘length-wise’ and throw one half of it in the milk, seeds and all.

Add the whole-split ’empty’ vanilla bean pod OR the half-fresh vanilla bean pod to the milk, whichever using.
