Ingredients You’ll Need

1½ cups fresh chinola pulp (or 1 cup of juice): This tangy fruit is the star of the drink. Fresh pulp enhances the flavor beautifully, but store-bought juice works too.
4 cups ice cubes: Essential for chilling the drink and giving it a slushy texture, making each sip refreshing.
4 cups evaporated milk: Provides a creamy base that balances the tartness of the chinola. You can substitute with coconut milk for a dairy-free option.
⅔ cup sugar (or preferred sweetener): Adjust the sweetness to your taste. Feel free to use honey, agave syrup, or a sugar substitute if you’re looking for alternatives.

How to Make Batida de Morir Soñando de Chinola

Prepare the Chinola: Begin by blending the fresh chinola pulp in a blender. Blend until the seeds start breaking apart. Once done, strain it through a fine mesh to remove the seeds and solids. This step ensures a smooth drink. Chill the resulting juice for about 15 minutes in the freezer or at least two hours in the refrigerator to bring out the vibrant flavors.
Blend the Base: In a blender, combine 4 cups of ice cubes, 4 cups of evaporated milk, and ⅔ cup of sugar. Blend until the mixture is smooth and thick, resembling a soft-serve ice cream consistency. This creamy mixture serves as the perfect base for your drink.
Combine & Serve: Gradually add in the chilled chinola juice with the blender running to combine all the components seamlessly. It’s best to serve your Batida de Morir Soñando de Chinola right away to avoid the milk from curdling due to the acidic chinola juice.

Storing & Reheating

For the best experience, this drink is best enjoyed fresh. However, if you have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. If you want to save it longer, consider freezing the mixture, which can last for up to 3 months in a freezer-safe container. When it’s time to enjoy it again, stir it thoroughly after thawing, but be aware that the texture might change slightly after freezing. To refresh the drink, blending it with a bit more ice can help restore that smooth, frosty texture.

Chef’s Helpful Tips

Avoiding Texture Issues: Make sure to chill the chinola juice adequately before blending. This prevents the milk from curdling.
Sweetness Variation: Taste the chinola juice before adding sugar. The ripeness of the fruit may vary, affecting sweetness levels.
Serving Size: This recipe serves four, but feel free to double it for larger gatherings—everyone will want a glass!
Presentation: For a more vibrant look, garnish with a slice of chinola or a sprig of mint on the rim of your glass when serving.
Experiment with Flavors: Mix in other tropical fruits like mango or pineapple for a delightful twist.
