Morir Soñando is a tropical drink I got to know from Dominican Republic cuisine. In my attempts to make a simple Pina Colada drink, I made a simple dairy free Morir Soñando.
One of the points in this recipe is to make it dairy free and also free of cane sugar. Morir Soñando is traditionally made with milk, sugar, and sweetened condensed milk. We are here to make it a bit healthier and dairy-free. The vanilla extract is very important to mask the coconut flavor.Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup coconut milk (from can)
- 3/4 cup + 2 tsp. orange juice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 Tbsp. of sweetener, or to taste (i.e. agave, maple syrup, coconut sugar, date sugar)
- Ice (to serve)
Equipment:
- Blender (optional)
Method:
- Add orange juice, coconut milk, sweetener and a few cubes of ice (optional)
- Blend for about 15 seconds
- Pour and serve onto a cup full of ice
