3. Take white taro balls and add purple sweet potato puree, pumpkin puree, dragon fruit peel juice, and spinach juice respectively and knead into dough of various colors. Let the dough rest for 20 minutes to wake up.

5. Use your imagination to make taro balls into various shapes. If you find it troublesome, this step can be omitted.

Tips

The pitaya peel is sticky, so the process of squeezing the juice is not easy. You have to add a small cup of water to squeeze it out and have to filter it manually. You have to twist and twist the gauze. Yes, you can squeeze out two skins and use them four or five times, and put the rest in the freezer for next time.
