How to Make Agar Agar Drink With Lime

  1. **Prepare the Agar Agar:** In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups of water, 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons of agar-agar powder.
  2. **Bring to a Boil:** Stir well to dissolve the sugar and agar-agar. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
  3. **Simmer and Clarify:** Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture becomes clear and slightly thickened.
  4. **Add Color and Flavor:** Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of lime juice and a few drops of green food coloring (optional).
  5. **Set the Jelly:** Pour the mixture into a shallow dish (approximately 8x8 inches) or individual molds. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until completely set.
  6. **Grate the Jelly:** Once set, grate the agar agar jelly using a box grater into fine strands.
  7. **Make the Syrup:** In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, 1/2 cup of water, and 2 tablespoons of fresh lime juice (or 1 teaspoon of lime extract). Add 2 tablespoons of chopped pandan leaves or 1 teaspoon of pandan extract.
  8. **Simmer the Syrup:** Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the sugar dissolves completely and the syrup slightly thickens.
  9. **Assemble the Drink:** In a tall glass, add 1/2 cup of grated agar agar jelly. Pour in 1/4 cup of the pandan lime syrup. Add the juice of 1/2 a lime and top with ice cubes and cold water.
  10. **Serve and Enjoy:** Garnish with a lime wedge (optional) and enjoy your refreshing Lime Agar Agar Jelly Drink immediately!
