My Mango sago is a chilled Hong Kong style dessert with a smooth ripe mango and coconut milk base, chewy tapioca pearls, and fresh diced mango on top. The dessert is naturally dairy free in my version, comes together in a few stages at the stove and the blender, and tastes like a Cantonese dessert shop in a bowl.
