Next, add 60ml cane sugar liquid and 1.5 cups of ice to the blender.
Blend until a fine, slushy texture is achieved (This forms the white coconut slush).
Prepare Serving Cup
In the serving cup, add 2 scoops of mango jam to coat the sides or layer the bottom.
Step 3: Assemble & Finish
Pour the Coconut Slush from Step 1 into the serving cup.
While pouring the slush, intermittently add 2 scoops of dragon fruit pulp so the dragon fruit is evenly distributed within the slush, creating the red/white layered effect.
🏷 Tips
Coconut Powder Dissolution: Use sufficient hot water and stirring time to ensure the coconut powder fully dissolves, preventing graininess in the final product.
Layering Aesthetics: The mango jam should first coat the cup walls (swirling effect) before the slush is poured, ensuring a visible three-color contrast (yellow, white, and pink).
Slush Fineness: The amount of ice is key; use exactly 1.5 cups of ice for the best fine, slushy consistency.
