The fasting month is the biggest and most enjoyable moment in my house, how can there not be a lot of preparation of various delicious menus at home. Like sweet drinks of various kinds, for example, they are always on the dining table. Usually we only buy it when we want it, but at moments like this, delicious drinks like cendol seem to be served at home almost every day, isn't that very exciting, haha I like this moment with lots of delicious food and drinks, of course make sure you enjoy it in sufficient portions.
Cendol Ice Drink
Cendol is a traditional drink that is very popular in my country. The process of making cendol is very varied, but there are many people who do it at home with easy and simple recipes like what I want to do today for example. Cendol is a drink made from rice flour which is made by molding. Made without flavor then enjoyed with coconut milk and palm sugar sauce.
Making cendol as a drink to break the fast is what I do most often. As I said above, before breaking the fast in the afternoon, I always prepare various sweet and delicious drinks. Well, the weather here is quite hot this month of Ramadan, therefore preparing cold sweet drinks will be very special at home, right? So, here is a simple and easy recipe for making cendol at home!
Ingredients Used To Make Cendol
1 pack of nutrijel
500 ml water
1 teaspoon salt
Ice
To taste pandan paste
Enough ice water
Es cendol without coconut milk and palm sugar sauce is not complete, therefore I also prepared complementary ingredients in the form of coconut milk sauce and also palm sugar sauce as complementary ingredients to enjoy ice cendol. However, if you don't like either of them, you can enjoy spoons with the vegetable milk you want.
Supplementary Ingredients
To taste palm sugar
3 spoons of granulated sugar
Creation Procedure
Put rice flour in a cooking pan, then mix with one packet of unflavored gelatin powder.
Add salt and pandan paste to taste.

If it has thickened, prepare ice cubes in another container and also add cold water.
Then put the mixture in plastic, cut the bottom and press the mixture on the ice. So, do this while the mixture is still hot, so that the cendol has a beautiful texture.

Do this until the mixture is finished, then leave the cendol in cold water, so that the cendol doesn't get damaged.
Next, I prepared the coconut milk and cooked the coconut milk by adding a teaspoon of salt, cooked until the coconut milk boiled. Then also cook the palm sugar using enough water.
Add granulated sugar then cook until thickened.

Serving Suggestions
Once everything is ready, I store some of the cendol in a closed container and then store it in the refrigerator for the next day. So for today, I took ¼ of the cendol by putting palm sugar in a glass and then adding a cup of cendol. Pour the coconut milk into a serving glass, stir well while enjoying it, then feel the sensation.
