The success of Vicky Salty Milk lies in its audacity. We have been told for years to put salt on everything except our drinks (except for margaritas).

Drinking it feels like stepping into the shoes of a confident, specific, slightly annoying icon.

Vicky Salty Milk ( Leche Salada Vicky ) is a refreshing, lightly salted milky soft drink. It’s a proprietary flavor from the Spanish brand Vicky (formerly known for Vicky Cola, Vicky Naranja, etc.). The drink tastes like sweetened milk with a hint of vanilla and a surprising but pleasant touch of salt — hence the name.
It’s often compared to a salted version of a milk shake or a creamy soda. Many Spaniards have fond childhood memories of drinking it chilled after playing outside or with a bocadillo (sandwich).
