Homemade Refreshing & Sweet Mango Bingsu Recipe
Beat the Heat with Our Easy Homemade Mango Bingsu!
The weather these days is scorching hot! While I generally enjoy warmer temperatures, this heatwave is something else. With the added concern of fine dust, it’s truly unbearable. My kids and I seem to be living on ice cream these days. So, I decided to make a delicious mango bingsu at home, just like the famous dessert cafes. Enjoy this sweet and icy treat!
Bingsu Ingredients
- Milk 500ml
- Frozen Mango Chunks 200g
- Sweetened Condensed Milk 3 Tbsp (adjust to taste)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the base for our bingsu: frozen milk. Pour 500ml of milk into a ziplock bag or an airtight container and freeze it for at least 6 hours, or until completely solid. (Tip: Freezing the milk flat in the bag or container makes it easier to break apart and blend later.)
Step 2
Once the milk is completely frozen, break it into manageable pieces and place them in a blender or food processor. Blend until it becomes a fine, fluffy snow-like texture, similar to shaved ice. Aim for a consistency that resembles a smooth slushy or shaved ice. (Note: If your blender doesn’t achieve the ultra-fine texture of a dedicated bingsu machine, don’t worry. Using an ice cream maker can result in a wonderfully smooth slushy texture.)
Step 3
Spoon the blended frozen milk into a serving bowl. Generously top with the frozen mango chunks. Using pre-cut frozen mango makes this recipe incredibly convenient, saving you the hassle of peeling and chopping fresh mangoes.
Step 4
Finally, drizzle sweetened condensed milk over the top to add a touch of sweetness. Adjust the amount according to your preference – more condensed milk means a richer, sweeter flavor. It’s truly delicious when generously drizzled!
Step 5
And there you have it! A refreshingly cold and sweet mango bingsu is ready to be enjoyed. It’s simple yet delivers a fantastic taste that will surely impress you. Doesn’t it look incredibly refreshing?
