Equipment
Ingredients
- ½ cup sago dried
- 1 cup milk or milk of choice
- 2 tablespoons (12 g) matcha powder
- ½ cup (120 ml) hot water 176°F (80°C)
- ¾ cup evaporated milk
- ¼ cup condensed milk adjust to taste
- 1 cup strawberries washed and diced
- 1 cup coconut jelly
- ½ cup strawberry heart jelly optional
Instructions
- Cook the sago. In a medium saucepan, bring water to a boil. Then, add the sago, reduce the heat to medium high, and cook until the pearls are mostly transparent, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, cover, and let sit for another 10-15 minutes or until the sago is fully translucent.
- Cool the sago. Strain the sago and rinse it with cold water to stop the cooking. Submerge the sieve with the sago into a water bowl to prevent them from drying. Set aside.
- Make matcha milk. Sift the matcha into a small heat-proof bowl and then whisk with hot water (176°F or 80°C) in a “W” motion until frothy and combined. Then add the milk and mix until combined.
- Combine. Drain the sago. In a large mixing bowl, add the sago, evaporated milk, condensed milk, matcha milk, strawberries, coconut jelly, strawberry jelly, and ice.
- Assemble. Serve immediately in individual-sized cups and enjoy!
