Steps
Once you have that beautiful mountain of shaved ice in a bowl, you can start putting in the sweetened condensed milk to make the patbingsu just as creamy as you want it to be.
The next ingredient that you can add is the red bean paste and matcha powder for some added flavor and color.
Lastly, put in the fruits, sticky glutinous rice and the ice cream of your choice.
