1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 can evaporated milk
6 egg yolks
2 cups sugar
1 cup water
1 tsp. vanilla
½ cup white rum
-
Mix the sugar and water together over very low heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves – about 3 minutes. It has to be just low enough so that the sugar doesn’t carmelize, but makes a thick sugary water.
-
Put the egg yolks in a blender and mix with the condensed milk.
-
Slowly add the evaporated milk and mix completely.
-
Flavor with the vanilla.
-
Pour the mixture into the sugar-water and mix together.
-
Finally stir in the rum
Makes about 5 cups, or two and a half bottles.
