The origin of combining sugar cane juice with durian could be dedicated to a rest stop shop in Cu Chi, a suburban district of Ho Chi Minh city (Saigon) named Nước Mía Vườn Cau. The simplest version is a mixture of sugar cane juice with pureed durian. Modern adaptation includes some toppings like roasted peanuts, dried jackfruit, or jelly cubes.
In a blender bowl, add sugar cane juice, durian flesh then blend until the durian flesh is dissolved into the juice. The ratio of sugar cane juice to durian is 2:1. Finally, add 2 teaspoons of steamed mung beans, and 2 teaspoons of coconut milk.
Pour the durian-sugarcane juice into a serving glass or cup. Dredge it with shaved ice and your favorite toppings.
