The difference between condensed milk and evaporated milk is the evaporated milk is the evaporated milk is sweetened condensed milk without any added sugar.

While the condensed milk is sweetened with added sugar.

Both these shelf-stable products are made with milk that's had about 60 percent of its water removed, with sweetened condensed milk being sweetened.

Evaporated milk can be reconstituted with an equal volume of water and used to replace fresh milk in most recipes.

Evaporated milk, known in some countries as "unsweetened condensed milk", is a shelf-stable canned cow’s milk product where about 60% of the water has been removed from fresh milk. It differs from sweetened condensed milk, which contains added sugar.

When I want to drink some condensed milk I pour a little bit of the condensed milk into a cup and then add some cold water.

Then I stir the water condensed milk up to mix it with the water and I have a sweet tasting milk.
