Chinese New Year is a time of feasting, lots of eating and glorious food, so sometimes it might be good to serve something cooling (yet tasty) to go with the festivities!
All you need is about an hour, and you’ll have a nice cooling treat for your visitors at home. We used Nutriwell Water Chestnut and Sugar Cane drink, which is also lesser in sugar for health benefits. Also added are water chestnuts, so that you get that crunch that gives it more depth.
Simple, easy, and a fun treat for the family!
