Instructions

  1. Step 1: Place 1 tbsp matcha powder into a small bowl, then pour 1/4 cup hot water over it. Whisk briskly until smooth and no lumps remain, forming a vibrant green matcha syrup.
  2. Step 2: Using a blender or food processor, pulse 4 cups ice cubes until they resemble fine snow, then transfer the shaved ice into two dessert bowls.
  3. Step 3: Drizzle 1/4 cup condensed milk evenly over the shaved ice to add sweetness and creaminess.
  4. Step 4: Spoon 1/2 cup sweetened red bean paste over the ice in each bowl, distributing it evenly for bursts of sweetness.
  5. Step 5: Scatter 1/2 cup chewy mochi cubes atop the red bean layer for textural contrast.
  6. Step 6: Pour the prepared matcha syrup evenly over both bowls, allowing the vibrant flavor to infuse the ice.
  7. Step 7: Garnish each bowl with 1 tbsp toasted almond slices for a subtle nutty crunch before serving immediately.
