Equipment

  • 1 Blender

Ingredients
  

  • 250 g Pennywort 8.8 oz
  • 750 ml Distilled water 3 cups
  • 1 Tablespoon Condensed milk
  • 2 Teaspoons White granulated sugar
  • Pinch of Table salt Approximately 1/8 teaspoon

Instructions
 

  • Wash the pennywort in cold water. Make sure to wash thoroughly as sand and dirt are sometimes hidden in the stems. After washing it, let it dry on a strainer.
  • Next, add your pennywort into a blender along with the distilled water. I recommend using some scissors and cutting the pennywort into smaller pieces to make it easier to blend the ingredients together. If you’re using a small blender, then you might need to blend everything in several batches.
  • After blending, pour out the liquid through a sieve to strain out the pennywort juice.
  • Skim off the foam on top of the pennywort juice if you have any foam.
  • Add the condensed milk, sugar, and a pinch of salt to the juice.
  • Mix everything well together, then add in some ice and serve cold.
