Easy Pandan Milk
Easy Pandan Milk mixes pandan juice and cream sweetened with pandan syrup for a gently flavored drink. The creamy texture and subtle pandan aroma can be enhanced by adding pandan jelly, adding a pleasant chewiness and visual appeal, making it a refreshing beverage or light dessert component.
Ingredients
- ½ Cup cream Substitute: soy milk or a vegan milk of choice.
- ½ Cup pandan juice Stir before using to make sure the flavor hasn't all settled at the bottom.
- ½ Tablespoon pandan simple syrup or to taste. Substitute: white sugar, gula melaka, homemade brown sugar, honey or 1 of these refined sugar substitutes etc.
- pandan jelly Optional, to make the drink more substantial (Pandan Jelly will also make the drink greener and more attractive.) See Notes on how to make, or grass jelly
Instructions
- Pour the stirred pandan juice into the cream.
- Sweeten to taste and serve. (If adding jelly, add the jelly first then sweeten to taste, as the jelly is already sweet.)
Notes
- Pandan jelly can be prepared in advance by combining pandan syrup or extract with sugar and coconut agar jelly, then allowing it to set.
- Konnyaku jelly is chewier but not recommended in drinks due to choking hazards as it doesn’t dissolve in the mouth.
- Extra pandan jelly can be saved and served as a standalone dessert or incorporated into fruit salads; it stores well in the fridge for up to five days.
