Buko Pandan Drink
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 pandan leaves, washed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 bottle of sweetened nata de coco
- meat and juice of 2 large coconuts, {meat shredded to strips}
- 3 cups tapioca pearls
- 1½ cans of condensed milk
- 5 cups water
- 1 packet of green gelatin
- Green food color – optional
Instructions
- Boil the cut-up pandan leaves in water until the water is infused with pandan flavor. Remove the leaves from the water and throw it out.
- Cook the gelatin according to packet directions but use two-thirds of the pandan infused water. Reduce the amount of water needed so you’ll get firmer gelatin.
- Cut the gelatin into cubes when it solidifies.
- Strain Nata de Coco to remove the sugar syrup.
- In a large pitcher, combine shredded coconut meat, coconut juice, tapioca pearls, nata de coco, condensed milk, cubed gelatin, water and what’s left of the pandan-infused water.
- Add green food color, if desired, just for presentation.
- Mix well. Put in the fridge and chill for 2 hours.
