Ingredients
- 100 grams Small tapioca pearls
- 2 large Fresh ripe mango, peeled and diced
- 400 ml Full-fat coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Honey (optional, for extra sweetness)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 liter Water
- 6 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, bring 1 liter of water to a boil.
Step 2
Once boiling, add the small tapioca pearls to the water and cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. The tapioca pearls are done when they become translucent.
Step 3
Drain the cooked tapioca pearls using a fine mesh strainer and rinse them under cold running water to stop them from cooking further. Set aside.
Step 4
While the tapioca is cooking, puree one of the diced mangos in a blender or food processor until smooth.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut milk, mango puree, honey (if using), and vanilla extract. Mix well.
Step 6
Add the rinsed tapioca pearls to the coconut milk mixture and stir until fully combined.
Step 7
Gently fold in the remaining diced mango pieces.
Step 8
Transfer the mixture into serving bowls or glasses.
Step 9
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together and to serve it cold.
Step 10
Garnish each serving with fresh mint leaves before serving, if desired.
