As usual yesterday Thursday I was at home cleaning the house, from cleaning the yard to pulling out wild grass, it really drained my energy for today, and I really wanted to enjoy a refreshing drink such as iced drinks, syrup or juice, and my choice fell on dragon fruit juice, coincidentally there was some leftover dragon fruit in the refrigerator, the dragon fruit my son ate yesterday, he really likes eating dragon fruit, but he doesn't like it juiced or made into snacks, but oh well, rather than wasting it, he doesn't eat the dragon fruit anymore, I wanted to make a refreshing drink from dragon fruit, and of course it's healthier without added sugar.
But to replace granulated sugar, I added half a glass of liquid milk, not a whole glass, because I was afraid it would be too sweet because I wanted to make juice that wasn't too sweet.Okay, I will start preparing the ingredients.
1/2 pack of agar-agar
1 glass of water
1/2 cup of liquid milk
For the water and liquid milk, I forgot to take a picture... sorry, friends.
Cook the agar-agar with 1 glass of boiled water until the agar-agar is cooked.
Peel the dragon fruit from its skin then blend the dragon fruit until it becomes juice,
Strain the dragon fruit juice with a tea strainer, then add agar-agar to the dragon fruit and stir until it becomes like small moss.
Then add liquid milk to sweeten the juice, without using any more sugar, but if you like it sweeter, you can add more sugar.
Then stir again, add ice cubes and serve in a juice glass.
Finally, my homemade dragon fruit juice is ready, which is not too sweet, but I think it suits my taste, after a whole day of cleaning the yard, it really drains my energy, and after I drink 1 glass of dragon fruit juice, it makes my body fresh and my energy increases, the cold and fresh juice is really suitable for me right now.Moreover, dragon fruit is very good for our body, very good for digestion too, contains natural antioxidants which are good for the skin.
You can see for yourself that the sun is very hot today where I am, making me tired and I want to enjoy a cold drink, but I have to make it myself hehe.For those of you who have dragon fruit at home, you can try making dragon moss juice like this. The taste of the moss texture in the juice makes our tongues want to enjoy it again and again.And without realizing it, I added another glass because besides being refreshing, it also made me thirsty, but it doesn't matter, the juice isn't that sweet, basically a little bit is good for our health.
