This is a new favourite drink of mine. I bought this can of grass jelly at the Chinese grocery store. I remembered having it in a drink at a Vietnamese restaurant awhile back. I found a youtube video explaining how to make it into a drink. Then I googled 'grass jelly' and discovered it is believed to have health benefits such as lowering blood pressure, help heal stomach ulcers, fever. The jelly has zero calories and has a slight bitter taste so it may not be for everyone. Anyway, when cubed, mixed with milk, syrup and ice cubes, it makes a refreshing and delicious drink.

Looks most interesting, I have never seen it here, but we only have one tiny supermarket in our little town. If I ever see it I will try it. Valerie
mmm, sounds intriguing!
I've never heard of this. Looks really interesting.
Sounds amazing!
first I've heard of it
heh. not for me. Lol.
It looks refreshing and delicious! I love how you often try new things!
Never heard of grass jelly, but we have many Vietnamese in this area and many Asian grocery stores so I'm sure I could find it if I went looking. I can't drink milk drinks, though. I wonder how it would taste with coconut milk?
Sounds good, but I've never heard of this. Very interesting. I'll have to try it if I ever see it at the Vietnamese restaurant.
