Leche merengada

Leche merengada is a sweet, chilled Spanish drink that combines milk and whipped egg whites. The milk is heated and often flavored with lemon zest and cinnamon before it is chilled and combined with whipped egg whites. Merengada is then semi-frozen, and the final result is a refreshing combination that has a texture similar to a milkshake or a slushie, while some versions sometimes resemble ice creams.

This vintage dessert is often prepared at home, but it is also commonly found in ice cream parlors. It is usually served in tall glasses, while the top is traditionally sprinkled with ground cinnamon.
