A drink I remember from my childhood. It is so cooling as it has a crushed ice base and cincao which is known for its cooling affects.

Ingredients:selasih
Crushed or shaved ice
Rose Stroop
Selasih (sweet basil seeds, soaked in water until expanded)
Cincao (grass jelly)
Rock melon or Nangka
Santan or sweetened condensed milk

Directions:
Place the crushed or shaved ice in a large glass add the selasih, nangka and cincao. Pour a little rose stroop over the top and add the santan or condensed milk. If using the condensed milk make sure to adjust the rose stroop as it will otherwise be too sweet.

Common Name: Jackfruit
Botanical Name: Artocarpus heterophyllus
Malaysian:
Thai: khanun

Largest fruit of all. Fruits usually weigh 20 to 40 pounds, although fruits of 100 pounds have been recorded. The part that is eaten is the fleshy part surrounding the seed. The taste is often described as juicy fruit gum, but this does not do it justice. The seeds are also very tasty when boiled or roastednangka
