Prepare the milk mixture by combining 4 cups of fresh milk with 1 cup of water in a bowl.

Add 4 tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk and a sprinkle of salt to the milk mixture and stir until well combined.

Pour the milk mixture into a ziplock bag, remove the air, and seal tightly before flattening it.

Freeze the milk mixture for 5 to 6 hours until solid.

Boil 2 cups of red beans in a pot with enough water to cover them, adding a sprinkle of salt.

After 5 minutes of boiling, strain and rinse the beans, then return them to the pot with generous water.

Boil the beans until soft, then add 1/2 cup of white sugar and 1/3 teaspoon of salt, stirring until the sugar dissolves.

Add 6 tablespoons of honey to the beans and stir until combined and glossy.

In a microwavable container, mix 1 cup of glutinous rice powder with 3-4 pinches of salt and 1 tablespoon of white sugar.

Gradually add 1 cup of boiling hot water to the rice powder mixture, mixing until thick and glue-like.

Cover the mixture with cling wrap and pierce it three times with a fork to allow steam to escape.

Microwave the mixture on high for 1 minute and 30 seconds, then fluff and microwave again for the same time until smooth and sticky.
