- 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
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!
- 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.
