First, add 500ml of fresh milk to a pot, then add 200ml of coconut cream, 150gr of rock sugar, ¼ teaspoon of salt, and 40gr of pandan leaves into the milk and bring it to a boil over low heat. Stir continuously to prevent the milk from burning at the bottom.

Mix the tapioca flour
Add 300gr of tapioca flour into a large bowl, then pour in 170ml of boiling water and mix until the flour clumps together. Knead the dough thoroughly until it is firm and even.
Once the dough has formed a cohesive, elastic mass that does not stick to your hands, divide it into small bite-sized pieces and roll them into balls.
Tip: Depending on the quality of the flour, the amount of water needed to knead the dough may vary. To mix the flour properly, gradually add water until the dough is elastic and sticky but not runny.

Next, cut the mango and jelly into bite-sized pieces.
Now, add some ice to a bowl, then arrange several slices of ripe mango, a bit of jelly, and the tapioca pearls on top. Finally, pour the coconut milk and young coconut flesh into the bowl, then sprinkle some dried coconut on top, and it’s ready to enjoy.
