A Dominican drink made with milk and juice, dairy-free option available.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1

    Pour the orange and lime juice into a large pitcher with your sweetener of choice. Make sure to mix well and if using a dry sugar, make sure it is mixed until fully dissolved.

  2. 2

    Add 2 cups of ice and stir well, allowing the juice to fully chill.

  3. 3

    Once (and only when) the juice is cold, slowly pour in the evaporated milk while continuously stirring the mixture to avoid the milk from separating.

  4. 4

    When the milk is fully incorporated, add the remaining ice and stir in a small pinch of salt (this will help bring out more of the sweet flavor from the orange juice).

  5. 5

    To serve, pour the drink into cups filled with ice and serve garnished with an orange slice.


Notes

Can be made dairy-free and to taste.
