Place the remaining goat's milk, sugar, and cinnamon stick in a large pot over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Remove the pot from the heat and add in the baking soda mixture.

Once the mixture stops bubbling, return the pot to the heat and bring it back to a low simmer. Cook until the mixture has reduced and thickened (about 45-60 minutes).
