Hey there! Have you ever wondered what the most popular dessert in Indonesia is? In my opinion, if there’s one sweet treat that’s loved by almost every Indonesian, it has to be Es Teler!
In Indonesian, Es Teler literally translates to “Drunk Ice,” even though there’s no alcohol involved! The name actually comes from a customer who once joked that the dessert was so delicious, it made them feel “drunk” with happiness. And honestly, it’s easy to see why!
Es Teler is like a tropical getaway in a bowl! At its core, this dessert is a refreshing mix of shaved ice, jackfruit, avocado, coconut meat, and a drizzle of condensed milk. Sweet, creamy, and fruity—it’s everything you need for a refreshing treat!
But if you’re in the mood to get even more creative, you can throw just about anything in there! From grass jelly and syrup to Nata de coco. And if you’re feeling adventurous, try adding some kolang-kaling!
The best part? Not only is making Es Teler at home super easy, it’s also a lot of fun! Just grab your basics—shaved ice, jackfruit, avocado, coconut meat, and a splash of condensed milk—and you’re already halfway there.
Want to get creative? Toss in your favorite toppings and make it your own.
So what are you waiting for? Give it a shot—and enjoy your icy masterpiece!
Best regards, Gembira
