My son loves jugo de avena, and I do it myself for him from time to time.
But he says mine does not taste like the ones he buys out in Puerto Plata.
Can one of you true Dominicans on the board tell me what I am preparing wrong????

This is what I use, got it from a neigbour.

2 tazas de jugo de naranja

1/2 taza de az?car

2 tazas de agua

1 taza de avena

4 tazas de leche

2 tazas de cubos del hielo

Thanks, gracias!

it all in the combo

are you letting the oatmeal soak in the milk for a while? then strain it once it is thick.
you have to combine the naranja with the sugar first also.

1) try evaporated milk (Carnation) instead of whole

2) use lime juice instead of orange

3) don't forget the pinch of cinammon

don't forget to combine the lime with sugar first so the milk doesn't get nasty.

Try fresh lime instead of the orange juice. I havent found ONE orange juice brand that tastes like the ones in DR.

Well, I live in Puerto Plata so that is not the problem. I always use fresh ingredients here, even for juice.

Thanks Carina for asking that....I miss that juice more than anything! I'm on my way to grocery store now to pick up the missing ingredients and I'm going to give it a try on my own! Thanks everyone. What would I do without you..... ;)
