Ingredients

¼ cup sweet corn canned or boiled fresh
½ cup shaved ice
4 teaspoon sweetened condensed milk
4 Tablespoons evaporated milk or milk of choice
2 Tablespoons corn flake cereal
1 scoop corn ice cream or vanilla ice cream

Instructions

In a serving glass, add 2 tablespoons of sweet corn. Top with shaved ice. Drizzle about 2 teaspoon sweetened condensed milk over ice. Pour about 2 Tablespoon evaporated milk over sweetened ice.
If desired add another layer of corn, shaved ice, sweetened condensed milk and evaporated milk.
Otherwise, sprinkle corn flakes cereal over ice. Finish with a scoop of corn ice cream. If desired, drizzle additional sweetened condensed milk over ice cream. Enjoy immediately!

Notes

Use drained canned corn. Or, cook fresh cobs of corn and chill before use.
Evaporated milk is sweeter and slightly thicker than regular milk.
- Use your choice of milk in place. Good alternatives are whole milk, half & half, a splash of heavy cream. Non-dairy alternatives such as soy milk and oat milk are also great options.
Good substitutes for corn ice cream include: vanilla ice cream, corn & cheese ice cream (mais queso ice cream), coconut ice cream, or coconut almond chip ice cream.
