Machacados Granizados - Decadent!

There are many street vendors in Cozumel.  Yesterday, I finally bought something from one of them: a Machacado Granizado.

Machado means crushed.  Granizado means hail or coarse ice.  So, a machacado granizado is basically a homemade slurpy.  They can be made with different fruits and flavourings.  Of course, I didn't know any of this when I asked Jose, the cart operator, what he was selling.

What I thought I heard Jose say was "we open the banana, we add vanilla, cinnamon, and milk in a cup".  For about $1.70 Canadian, I thought it sounded tasty, reasonably healthy, and like a fun experience.  I'll take one please.

What I got was a little different....  In a cup, some mashed banana.  Check.  Crushed ice. Good.  Cinnamon and vanilla.  Yep.  A tonne of sweetened condensed milk.  OMG!!!!  I love the stuff.  It's delicious.  But that's a lotta sugar!  Of course I ate it all!

Pictures
1 - The sign spells ganisados with an "s".  Google translate seems to prefer a "Z".  Either way, it was a fun experience!

4-When I asked Jose to take a picture of his cart, before I bought my machacado, he seemed a bit confused about my interest, and shy about being in the picture.
