• 100g small sago pearls
• 200g gulaman (agar) or 1 sachet agar powder
• 200g brown sugar

1. Boil the sago pearls in plenty of water 15 min, then take off the heat, cover and rest 10 min until translucent all the way through.

4. Melt the brown sugar in the water with the vanilla to make a dark arnibal syrup, and chill it.
5. Combine the sago, gulaman cubes and syrup in a tall glass with ice.
6. The texture is the point — chewy pearls, slippery jelly, cold sweet syrup.
