- Keep it on the counter for 5-10 minutes to thaw a little bit. Then, pound it with a rolling pin flipping the bag back and forth.
- Scoop the mixture into a serving bowl. When you see the large cluster of milk mixture forming like slush, It’s ready.
- Place the milk slush into a cold serving bowl, and top with red beans and rice cakes. Drizzle a little bit of sweet condensed milk on top, about a tablespoon or so.
- Serve while it is cold. Stir the slush-like shaved milky ice and red beans gently altogether. Now you can enjoy the cool refreshing taste of Korean summer dessert.
