To know me is to know that a batido de trigo is my all-time favorite milkshake.

Maybe it’s because it’s nostalgic or maybe it’s because it’s deliciously creamy. Either way, a batido de trigo (translated to wheat milkshake) is a classic Cuban milkshake made with sweetened condensed milk, whole milk, sugar, and puffed wheat cereal. I know it sounds weird to add puffed wheat cereal to a milkshake but trust me here. I’ve been enjoying this recipe since birth and honestly, I’ve never grown tired of it.

If you weren’t born in a Cuban family or in South Florida, all this is foreign to you. You can find this milkshake served at Cuban restaurants for breakfast or as a late night treat along with many other fruit varieties. This one for some reason was just always my favorite one.

Ingredients You’ll Need

Here are the 5 key ingredients you need for this deliciously creamy wheat milkshake!

  • Whole milk. If you wanted to keep this dairy-free, you can use cashew milk!
  • Sweetened condensed milk.
  • Puffed Cereal.
  • Sugar. I like to add 3 tablespoons of sugar however you can adjust this needed.
  • Pinch of salt.
