About Burmese Faluda
Amy and Emily Chung’s Burmese faluda layers rose syrup, milk and sweets in a tall glass. Their version includes the custard flan that they identify as a characteristic Burmese addition.
The flan combines caramel, evaporated milk, condensed milk, eggs and vanilla. Strawberry jelly and cooked tapioca pearls add contrasting textures, with soaked basil seeds offered for an extra crunch.
The components are layered with rose syrup and vanilla ice cream before whole milk is poured over them. Optional ice keeps the drink cold, and the layers are stirred together before eating and drinking.
