Method:
- Soak the Gum Tragacanth in a large bowl of water for 5- 7 hours (overnight), till it fills the water and looks like jelly.
- Also, soak the Boat Sterculia Seeds. It will grow into looking like something that totally lives under the sea. 🙂
- Remove the seed and the skin from the soaked mixture and keep only the ‘jelly-like’ part.
- Basil seeds need to be soaked till they expand/swell up as well.
- Add the milk to a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Stir in the condensed milk.
- Tear the washed Pandan leaves through the centre (to release scent and flavor) and add to the milk. Simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Take off the heat and refregerate till completely chilled.
- When time to serve, Add the honeydew melon to a blender and blend without water. Add the chilled Honeydew-Pandan Milk and blend again. You can add 2 drops of green food color if you like.

Notes:
- 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.
