• 3 cups milk, frozen in ice-cube trays (do this the night before)
• 4 tbsp condensed milk, plus more for drizzling
• 2 tbsp red bean paste (optional but classic)
• fresh fruit: strawberries, mango, banana
• mochi bits or rice cakes, cubed
• a few crushed nuts or misugaru powder (optional)

👩‍🍳 Method

1. Freeze the milk in cube trays at least 6 hours ahead — milk ice is what makes bingsu creamy instead of crunchy.
2. Blitz the frozen milk cubes in a strong blender or food processor in short pulses until it turns into fluffy snow. Don't over-blend into a smoothie.
3. Work fast: pile the milk snow high in chilled bowls.
4. Drizzle generously with condensed milk — this is not the moment for restraint.
5. Top with red bean paste, fruit and mochi bits.
6. Serve with two spoons and an agreement about who gets the last strawberry. It melts fast — eat faster.
