el milagro en frasco


Explanation:
Aunque la traducción literal sería MI milagro en frasco me parece que EL milagro en frasco, o tal vez EL MILAGRO PARA MI en frasco sería mejor. Espero te ayude!

mi milagro en un frasco


Explanation:
Mi opinión, nada más.

no es cualquier milagro, es *MI* milagro. el uso del adjetivo modificador (mi) es muy importante para el mensaje que está enviando la persona. *EL* no es tan personal como ella/el lo hace usando *MI*

agree  Benjamin A Flores: este me gusta más solo que sería "mi milagro envasado" ¿verdad?

  -> Gracias Benjamín. El posesivo no queda bien en castellano en este caso. Igual, ya se lo está usando justo antes "mi fuente de Juvencia".

"un milagro dentro de un tarro"


Explanation:
Espero le parezca esta versión de la frase. Yo no usaría "Mi milagro" ya que la repeticion de la silaba me parece confusa: mi... mi..lagro. Y en lo personal si fuera la consumidora me llamaría mas la atención que haya "un" milagro, con el artículo indefinido, un milagro que le puede suceder a cualquiera... dentro de un tarro, me imagino un bote de boca ancha.
