Morir soñando (To die dreaming) is a popular beverage of the Dominican Republic which has made its way to other Caribbean and Latin American countries, usually made of orange juice, milk, cane sugar, and chopped ice. Sometimes vanilla extract is also added, or evaporated milk is used instead of regular milk. The recipe varies greatly depending on the region and family heritage. American observers have described the drink as resembling an orange Creamsicle,, the eponymous drink of Orange Julius, or a tang shake where tang is shook with sugar, ice, evaporated milk or milk powder, and vanilla.
