How it is made
Condensed milk is produced by heating milk and adding sugar, which helps to preserve it. The mixture is then evaporated to remove excess water, resulting in a thick, sweet product. It can be made at home or purchased commercially in cans.
History

It gained popularity during the American Civil War when it was used as a food source for soldiers. Over the years, it has become a staple in many cuisines around the world, especially in desserts and beverages.
In cocktails
Bartenders often use condensed milk in cocktails to add sweetness and creaminess. It can be used in a variety of drinks, from tropical cocktails to coffee-based beverages. When using condensed milk, it's important to balance it with other ingredients to avoid overwhelming the drink with sweetness. A common serving tip is to shake it well with ice to ensure it mixes thoroughly with the other components.
