1 cup Sugar
2 cups Water
1 bar White Gulaman, shredded, soaked in water and drained
3 cups Tapioca pearls, cooked per instructions below
Banana extract
How to prepare :
Procedure for the Gulaman:
Shred gulaman into flakes using hand and soak in cold water.
Boil 2 cups of water in a saucepan. Drain soaked gulaman and add in the boiling water and simmer until dissolved. A teeny-weeny amount of sugar may be added into the boiling agar just so it doesn’t taste flat. Alternatively, you may use thin caramelized sugar syrup, thereby adding a bit of colour other than just some sweet flavour.
Transfer to a shallow square or rectangular baking pan and let cool to set at room temperature. To facilitate faster setting, place the pan in a basin of iced water.
When cooled down and set, cut into small cubes, set aside and keep refrigerated before using.
Procedure for the Sago:
Drop in tapioca pearls in a pan with enough water to cover and soak, and more to compensate for the evaporation during the boiling process.
Bring to a boil until only a small opaque spot in the middle of each sago is visible, normally half of its original size. Again, similar to the agar, a small amount of sugar added into the boiling sago makes it taste a bit less flat.
Drain sago and rinse with cold water until sago pearls are cooled down. Transfer to a deep pan and soak in cold water overnight. Sago pearls should be soft all the way the following day. Keep refrigerated until it is ready for use.
Procedure for the Sugar Syrup [Arnibal]:
Caramelize sugar in a saucepan. When melted, pour in water and simmer until sugar is completely dissolved and right consistency is achieved. Let cool completely and set aside.
To prepare the drink:
Shave or crush some ice and set aside; spoon some gulaman and sago into a glass; add banana extract and enough arnibal [caramelized sugar syrup] to cover gulaman and sago. Fill the glass with ice-cold water, leaving enough space for the shaved or crushed ice topping.
