Black Sugar Milk

A new food & drink stall just launched at my workplace. There is this drink which has a name that triggers one’s curiosity. It’s called “Frog Milk” in English and “Qing Wa Zhuang Nai” (青蛙撞奶) in Mandarin. It tastes good and cost RM2.50, yet with simple ingredients. It’s just a mixture of UHT milk, black sugar and sago (“Pearl” in Taiwanese milk tea). I believe it got its name because of the sago which shape is round (like frog’s egg).

Today, I wanna teach you how to make this special beverage but without sago, as I don’t know where to get it or how to make it. (perhaps I’ll look for ingredients in making the sago in future) So, we can’t call this “Frog Milk”, I’ll just name it “Black Sugar Milk” instead.

All you need is just 3 things:

  1. Dutch Lady UHT low fat milk (or any UHT milk of your choice)
  2. Leaves black sugar (aka Teh C Special sugar 三色奶茶糖)
  3. Ice cubes

The essential ingredient in this fabulous drink is this black sugar. I have received questions on where to get this sugar. I bought this at Everrise supermarket in Kuching. I’m not sure if they have exported this throughout the country. But I can assure you, you can get this sugar here in Kuching, because the manufacturer is in Kuching (now Kuchingnites, it’s time for you to be proud :P ).  How much per bottle? RM9.80 as shown in the image below.

What is this sugar actually? It’s made of white gourd, sugar, water, citric acid and permitted preservative. This sugar is initially made for Teh C Peng Special (aka 3 layer teh c peng).

After getting ready the ingredients, you can start making your drink!

Step 1: Pour in the black sugar into the glass.

Step 2: Add in ice cubes.

Step 3: Pour in Dutch Lady UHT low fat milk.

It’s actually done.

Step 4: Stir well.

Now, you can start enjoying the drink!!

I thought of enhancing the drink with another optional ingredient – coffee flavoring syrup. You can get this similar ingredient from any baking department.

I like coffee, adding it into the drink makes it taste good too.

It’s an optional ingredient, though.

It can be addictive to some people. However, those who dislike milk may find it unsatisfying.

Try it yourself. Let me know what you think.

By the way, I’m also thinking of selling the black sugar, anyone interested? :P
