Traditional Foods from Puerto Rico

Tostones:

Tostones are delicious fried plantains that I’ve had the pleasure of eating since I was a kid. I usually would eat tostones with Mayoketchup which is mayonnaise mixed with ketchup and sometimes onions.

Tres Leches:

Tres Leches(Three Milks) is a sponge cake that is soaked in milk. Honestly, this is one of my favorite desserts of all time. The soft texture of the cake mixed with the taste of the milk is amazing.

Pina Colada:

Pina Coladas are Puerto Rico’s official drink and they are one of the best beverages accompanying a meal. With and without alcohol this is a drink that can be enjoyed by all regardless of age. I love having a Pina Colada or two whenever I visit Puerto Rico.
