These Jugo de Avena recipes are easy to make, very quick, and leave room for a ton of adjustments. They are packed with flavor and have a deliciously thick and creamy texture.
To start, you can combine the milk and oats in a blender. On a high speed, blend these ingredients for 3 minutes or until you have a uniformly smooth creamy mixture.
If you'd like to, you can now run this liquid through a sieve to remove any solids. Whether or not you do this comes down to personal preference.
Next, add the sugar to your blended oat liquid and mix it well. You can adjust the level of sweetness by adding more or less sugar.
Once you have made the base, you can chill the liquid in the fridge for a few hours. The mixture should be as cold as it can be. If it isn't, your drink will curdle when you add the lime juice.
Once your liquid is cold, pour the chilled oat liquid into ice-filled glasses. Then, slowly pour in your lime juice while mixing constantly.
Serve your Juge de Avena drink immediately while it is still cold and fresh. As it heats up, it will start curdling.
Oatmeal Recipe
To make this version of Jugo de Avena, you don't have to blend the oatmeal. Just combine the oatmeal, evaporated milk, milk, vanilla, and sugar in a large bowl or jug. Whisk them together well.
Again, place the mixture inside the fridge so that it can cool and thicken. Allow it to rest for a couple of hours. Take it out and run the mixture through a sieve.
Finally, slowly pour the lemon juice inside the chilled drink and whisk continuously.
Pour your oat and evaporated milk drink into an ice-filled glass. Serve it immediately while it's still cold.
