Method:

1.  Soak the Gum Tragacanth in a large bowl of water for 5- 7 hours (overnight), till it fills the water and looks like jelly.
2. Also, soak the Boat Sterculia Seeds. It will grow into looking like something that totally lives under the sea. 🙂
3. Remove the seed and the skin from the soaked mixture and keep only the ‘jelly-like’ part.
4. Basil seeds need to be soaked till they expand/swell up as well.
5. Add the milk to a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Stir in the condensed milk.

7. Take off the heat and refregerate till completely chilled.

• If you dont have or dont like the flavor of Pandan, omit it.
• Honeydew must be very fresh and blended only prior to mixing the drink.
• Careful not to add to much ingredients for soaking. We want just a quarter part of the jug filled with these ingredients.
