Morir soñando
Beverage of orange juice, milk, cane sugar and chopped ice
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Morir soñando (To die dreaming) is a popular beverage of the Dominican Republic which has made its way to other Caribbean and Latin American countries, usually made of orange juice, milk, cane sugar, and chopped ice.[1][self-published source] Sometimes vanilla extract is also added, or evaporated milk is used instead of regular milk. The recipe varies greatly depending on the region and family heritage. American observers have described the drink as resembling an orange Creamsicle,[2][3] the eponymous drink of Orange Julius.[4]
