Mango Milk Cotton Ice with Lots of Durian Taro Balls @ Taro Balls One

Taro Balls One (Sai Wan)📍 Shop G/F, 27 Water Street, Sai Ying Pun, Sai Wan Went to Sai Wan CITYWALK with friends and made a deep dive to the newly reopened taro ball shop "Taro Balls One" in Sai Wan. Tried their signature mango milk cotton ice with lots of durian taro balls. They also offer Musang King glutinous rice balls during holidays—truly a feast. The shop isn’t very big, but there are elegant seats upstairs, spacious enough for gatherings with friends. The signature handmade taro balls are freshly made daily by the owner, available in three types: taro balls, sweet potato balls, and purple sweet potato balls. You can really taste the taro chunks—genuine and authentic. Mango Milk Cotton Ice: A refreshing and sweet summer dessert combining the fragrant sweetness of mango, the richness of milk, and the delicate texture of cotton ice. Perfect for cooling down and satisfying cravings. The milk is frozen into ice cubes, blended into a fine ice slush, and uses the natural sweetness of fresh mango as syrup, avoiding overly artificial syrup flavors. Topped with plenty of popping pearls for texture, fresh sweet mango, and glutinous rice balls—very refreshing. Lots of Durian Taro Balls: A rich, explosive, chewy creative dessert that perfectly combines the strong aroma of durian with the soft and chewy taro balls, offering a rich texture. Durian flesh is either mashed into a paste or added in large chunks, sweet and rich, chilled to a creamy ice cream-like texture. The taro balls are soft outside and chewy inside, with a bit of resilience, contrasting with the smoothness of durian—super interesting texture. Paired with jasmine tea jelly, the sweet and sour freshness instantly lightens the heaviness of durian. Rock Sugar Snow Swallow Stewed Peach Gum (bottled): The mild and sweet flavor of rock sugar is refreshing and not greasy, blending with the natural plant gums of snow swallow and peach gum to create a clear and sweet taste, more natural than ordinary sweet soups. After stewing, the snow swallow is crystal clear with a texture similar to bird’s nest—smooth and tender with a slight chewiness. The peach gum is soft, dense, jelly-like with some chew, full of collagen, and the soup thickens to coat the spoon. Rich layers, cool and smooth, perfect for summer. Summary: Durian and mango lovers will adore this. Milk ice has a dense, cottony texture. #SaiWan #WaterStreet #TaroBallsOne #MangoMilkCottonIce #RockSugarSnowSwallowStewedPeachGum #LotsOfDurianTaroBalls #Desserts #TaroBallLovers
