An unusual combination in cocktail making is causing quite a stir on social media, but many Cubans in Miami claim they don't dare to prepare such a drink.
It is about the mix of beer with condensed milk and evaporated milk. Instagram user Pérgolas Coronado (@pergolas_coronado) shared a video showing how to prepare this curious drink, which he describes as “refreshing,” although he admits to having doubts about its side effects.
"I don't know if by the time I finish drinking it I'll be drunk or if I'll have to go straight to the bathroom," he jokes, referring to possible issues if you're lactose intolerant.
The preparation is simple. Ideally, a blender would be used to thoroughly mix the ingredients, but the Cuban chose to make the drink in a more rustic way, in a large glass with plenty of ice and a cocktail shaker.
You just need to pour the cold beer, add condensed milk and a little evaporated milk, then stir well until the mixture is smooth and has a creamy texture.
The result is a sweet drink, with the characteristic bitterness of beer, perfect for those who dare to try unusual flavors. Would you be tempted to make this mix at home?
