It was originally created by the renowned Venezuelan chef and mixologist, Caracas-born Michelena. This delectable drink is typically enjoyed during the holiday season and special occasions. Its smooth and velvety texture, combined with flavors of vanilla, nutmeg, and rum, make it a beloved favorite among locals and visitors alike.
