Ingredients
- Tapioca pearls: Small pearls (rinsed).
- Dairy Product Base:
- Whole milk
- Unsweetened condensed milk (Bonnet Rouge or Peak type)
- Sweetened condensed milk (to your taste)
- Sweetener: Powdered sugar (adjust to your preference).
- Fruits:
- Strawberries (a few blended and strained for color/flavor, the rest freshly cut).
- Mango (diced).
- Green grapes (whole or cut in half).
- Gelatins/Extras: Mango and coconut jelly (cut into cubes).
- Ice cream: Ice cubes for serving.
Preparation Steps
- Prepare the Tapioca: Start by rinsing your tapioca pearls. Cook them until translucent and tender, then drain them.
- Create the Creamy Base: In a large bowl, mix the cooked tapioca with the whole milk, unsweetened condensed milk and sweetened condensed milk. Mix well.
- Sweeten and Flavor: Add the powdered sugar according to your taste. Pour in the mixed (and filtered) strawberry juice; this gives the mixture a nice pinkish hue and a base fruity flavor.
- Add the Fruits and Jelly: Gently incorporate the fresh cut strawberries, diced mango and green grapes. Add the mango and coconut jelly cubes for more texture.
- Serve: Mix everything carefully so that the fruits are well distributed. Add ice cubes to cool instantly, or place in the refrigerator for a few hours before serving.
