Cook the sago. In a medium saucepan, bring water to a boil over medium-high heat. Then, add the sago tapioca pearls. Cook until pearls turn transparent, about 15 minutes while stirring occasionally. It’s okay if the pearls' center still has tiny white centers. Remove from heat, cover, and let sit for another 15 minutes or until the sago becomes translucent.
Cool the sago. Strain the cooked tapioca pearls and rinse them with cold water. Place the cooked tapioca into a bowl of cold water to prevent the pearls from sticking together. Set aside.
Blend the mangos. Add the mango and evaporated milk into a blender. Then, mix at the highest speed until it forms a smooth consistency.
Combine. Drain the tapioca pearls. In a large mixing bowl, add the sago, chopped mango pieces, coconut jelly, mango jelly, condensed milk, and coconut milk. Then add in the mango mixture and mix until combined. Taste and add more condensed milk if needed and blend until combined. Chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour, or add ice to chill.
Serve. Serve in individual-sized cups, and enjoy!
