Description

Cream soda is a traditional beverage, popular in several Spanish-speaking countries, characterized by its creamy texture and sweet, smooth flavor. It is made from milk or dairy products combined with sugar, vanilla, or other flavorings, and is usually served cold as an accompaniment or dessert in various recipes.

The origin of cream soda is closely linked to Latin American cuisine, especially in Mexico and some regions of Central America, where it is common at celebrations and as a refreshing drink during warm weather. Its preparation traditionally involves simple ingredients that result in a rich and comforting taste experience.

Its notable properties include its energy content due to the sugars and fats present in the milk or cream, in addition to providing easily digestible calcium and proteins. It is ideal for complementing desserts or serving as the base for cocktails and mixed drinks, adding creaminess and sweetness.

In terms of synonyms, in different Latin American countries it is also known as agua de crema, bebida de crema, or simply crema fría. In some places, it may be confused with horchata or similar dairy beverages, although cream soda is distinguished by its denser texture and sweeter, creamier flavor.
