Hong Kong Breakfast Food - Iced Red Bean Drink.


My husband is pretty much the only fan of the red bean in our family. I will eat it, but I don't love it like my husband does. This particular drink is made out of three ingredients: sweetened red beans that have been cooked, evaporated milk, and crushed ice. It is always served with a straw and a spoon to scoop up the beans. The milk itself is not sweetened, but the sweetness from the red beans compensates and make the drink more pleasant to consume. The red beans float to the bottom of the glass, and as the ice melts it dilutes the intense flavor of the evaporated milk.
