Sweet mango puree, coconut milk, and chewy tapioca pearls create a rich and refreshing dessert everyone will love.
8 cups (1.9L) water
3/4 cup (155g) small tapioca pearls
1 cup (235ml) whole or 2% milk
3/4 cup (175ml) full-fat canned coconut milk
3 1/2 tablespoons honey, divided (or sugar/maple syrup)
3 medium mangoes (about 775–800g)
1 cup sliced strawberries
Bring water to a boil in a large pot. Add tapioca pearls only once the water is boiling. Stir and cook over medium-high heat for 15 minutes.
Turn off heat, cover, and let sit for 10–15 minutes until pearls are mostly translucent.
Drain and rinse pearls under cold water. Transfer to a bowl of cold water and set aside.
In a saucepan, heat milk and coconut milk until just boiling. Turn off heat and stir in 2 tablespoons honey. Let cool for 5–10 minutes.
Cut mangoes and cube the flesh. Reserve some cubes for texture.
Add about 1 1/4 cups mango flesh to a blender along with the milk mixture. Blend until smooth. Pour into a large bowl.
Drain tapioca pearls and toss with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons honey.
Add tapioca pearls to the mango mixture and stir. Fold in mango chunks and sliced strawberries.
Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
Chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
Always add tapioca pearls to boiling water to prevent clumping.
Cooling pearls in water keeps them from sticking together.
Use ripe, sweet mangoes for the best flavor.
Coconut milk adds richness but can be adjusted to taste.
Best served chilled for a refreshing dessert.
