Rinse rice in a strainer, then place in a large pot with 4 cups of water, and a cinnamon stick.
Bring to a boil then simmer for 15 minutes or until most of the water is absorbed.
Remove the cinnamon stick, and add Evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk, and whole milk to the rice. Add vanilla and stir to combine.You can add any dried fruit, like raisins at this point.
Turn the heat back to medium and bring to a simmer. Keep an eye on the pot and stir the rice every few minutes to avoid it sticking to the bottom.
Simmer the rice pudding for 20-25 minutes, stirring every few minutes.
Remove the pot from the heat, and allow the rice pudding to rest for 30 minutes. If a film forms on top, just stir it again. Serve warm or refrigerate and serve cold.
