If so, do you like it? I'm fairly addicted to it and I get it anytime it's available in a restaurant.

I have tried that but my aunt who made it didnt use sago, she use unflavored gelatin for it and it was really good. I think I am addicted to it too but I dont know what my aunt's secret ingredient is because I tried to make one at home but it didnt taste as good as the one my aunt made.

My bet is either sugar or milk.

It could also be cream. Is that even possible? =)

Oh you're right. Sorry about that. I think the English for sago is tapioca. The round things that have the consistency of jelly. It's basically a mango shake with tapioca.

hi! sago is like tapioca pearls. when cooked, it's a great mix in desserts and beverages. it goes well with sweets and shakes. normally the texture is soft, gummy-like and sticky.

Guess what? I bought sago from the market earlier. I'll try cooking it tomorrow. Maybe, I'll mix it with a banana shake first since I couldn't find ripe mangoes earlier.

i think mango sago uses ripe mango as a fruity juice/shake. i had it a few times... tastes great also, but i'm more of a green mango shake person. i imagine it's great once again this coming summer.

yup, the banana makes a fruit shake more creamy. and the sago provides a twist, i think. hehe like a smoothie with something to munch over on the side.
