Strawberry Sago Chia Seeds Milk

Strawberry Sago Chia Seeds Milk

Preparation Time: 

- 15 minutes (excluding chilling time)

Servings:

- Makes about 4 servings

Ingredients:

- 1 cup Sago (Tapioca Pearls)

- 1 cup Chopped Strawberries

- 1/2 cup Strawberry Jellies, cubed

- 1/2 cup Condensed Milk

- 2 tablespoons Chia Seeds, soaked in water

- 4 cups Regular Milk

- Ice Cubes

Instructions:

1. Rinse the sago under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add the rinsed sago to the boiling water and cook on medium heat. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook until the sago turns translucent, usually about 10-15 minutes. Once cooked, drain the sago using a fine-mesh sieve and rinse under cold water to stop further cooking. Set aside to cool.

2. Wash and chop the strawberries into small pieces. You can reserve a few pieces for garnish if desired.

3. In a small bowl, soak the chia seeds in water. Let them sit for about 10-15 minutes until they form a gel-like consistency.

4. In a large pitcher or serving bowl, combine the cooked sago, chopped strawberries, and strawberry jellies. Add the condensed milk and soaked chia seeds. Mix everything together gently.

5.Pour in the regular milk and stir well to combine. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more condensed milk if desired.

6. Refrigerate the strawberry sago milk mixture for at least 1 hour to chill and allow the flavors to meld.

7. Just before serving, add ice cubes to the pitcher or individual serving glasses. Stir the strawberry sago milk mixture well.

8. Serve chilled and enjoy the delightful flavors and textures of this refreshing Strawberry Sago Milk!
