2 cups water
Ice cubes, for serving

Notes
Use ripe, fragrant mangoes for the sweetest flavor.
Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less sweetened condensed milk.
For a thinner consistency, stir in extra coconut milk or evaporated milk before serving.
Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
Stir in a splash of coconut milk if the tapioca pearls absorb too much liquid during storage.
Do not freeze, as it changes the texture of the pudding and tapioca pearls.
