Bandung (Rose Syrup With Milk) image

My favourite drink from the Hawker Centre! When you visit any of Singapore's Hawker stalls, look out for a pink coloured drink. That's Bandung. This recipe is really from scratch. This drink is served in glass to show off the pink colour.

Time 35m

Yield 1 batch, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups sugar
2 1/2 cups water
1 egg white
1/2 eggshells, slightly crushed (yes, the shell. Make sure you wash the shell first)
cochineal food coloring
rose essence
evaporated milk (my favourite is Carnation Brand)
crushed ice (cubed if preferred.)

Steps:

  • Put the Sugar and Water in a pan and bring to boil.
  • After the sugar has dissolved, add egg white and shell (to clarify syrup).
  • Simmer for half an hour for the syrup to thicken.
  • Strain.
  • Cool.
  • Add a few drops of the food colouring and essence to taste.
  • Dilute 1 part of syrup to 5 parts water (or less if to your liking).
  • Make sure it is slightly sweeter than your preference because you are going to add evaporated milk.
  • Add evaported milk to taste.
  • Perhaps about 2 tbsps for a glass.
  • Add crushed/cubed ice.
  • Enjoy.
