Cuban Malta with Sweetened Condensed Milk

This creamy Malta drink combines the deep, toasted sweetness of a traditional malt beverage with rich sweetened condensed milk. It’s cold, refreshing, and tastes almost like a fizzy malted dessert.

Servings: 1–2

Ingredients

• 1 bottle or can Malta, well chilled (approximately 12 ounces)

• 2–3 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk

• Ice, optional

Instructions

1. Add the sweetened condensed milk to a large glass or pitcher.

2. Slowly pour in approximately one-quarter of the cold Malta. Stir gently until the condensed milk is completely dissolved.

3. Gradually add the remaining Malta, stirring slowly to combine. Pour carefully because the carbonation will cause the drink to foam.

4. Add ice, if desired, and serve immediately while cold and bubbly.

Tip

Begin with 2 tablespoons of condensed milk and taste before adding more. Malta is already sweet, so a small amount creates a creamy flavor without overpowering its distinct malt taste. For the best result, chill both the Malta and condensed milk before mixing.
