Instructions
  1. Over medium heat, mix all the ingredients until the sugar has dissolved. Allow this mixture to come to room temp, then place in the fridge until it has cooled completely.
  2. Cut the water chestnuts into 1/3 inch chunks then mix with 1 oz water and red food coloring. Allow them to sit for 10 minutes (this allows the color to set).
  3. Drain and coat the water chestnuts with tapioca flour.
  4. Sift off the excess flour.
  5. Spray with a water bottle and coat with another layer of flour. Sift again.
  6. Bring a pot of water to a boil and drop the red rubies in. They are ready when they float and become transparent (about 2 minutes).
  7. Remove and submerge in an ice bath. Set aside until ready for use.
  8. To serve: in a bowl, place the rubies, cold sweetened coconut mixture, crushed ice and whatever else you want. I used these…
Recipe Notes

The coconut mixture is pretty sweet. The crushed ice is used to cut through the sweetness. You may add cold water to lessen the sweetness.

I have done this recipe with a single layer of tapioca flour. It’s good. A double coating is better though.
