- Parfait Layers
- 1. In two separate glasses, first put in a small scoop of vanilla ice cream on the bottom, then pour over some Matcha Pandan Syrup (about a Tbsp) and then 1 mochi ball.
- 2. Cover that with a scoop of Matcha ice cream and then add in the crunch which is the Matcha granola in the middle and a second mochi ball. Again about a Tbsp of the granola is good.
- 3. Then put in as much Matcha ice cream as you want and pour more Matcha Pandan Syrup over it.
- 4. To finish add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top with a dusting of Matcha powder.
