Patbingsu or patbingsoo (팥빙수) is a popular shaved ice dessert in South Korea, especially during the hot and humid summer season.[1]
This snack originally began as ice shavings and sweetened azuki beans (known as pat, 팥).[2] It was sold by street vendors. In contemporary culture, it has become a very elaborate summer dessert, often topped with ice cream or frozen yogurt, sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, various fruits such as strawberries, kiwifruit, and bananas, small pieces of tteok (rice cake), chewy jelly bits, and cereal flakes.[3]
Variations
Bingsu are available in different flavors. Green tea and coffee are popular varieties.[4] For the summer 2007 season, Starbucks Korea released a frappuccino inspired by patbingsu.[5]
Availability
Patbingsu is a summer specialty item found on the menus of most fast food restaurants in South Korea. KFC, McDonald's, Lotteria, and Burger King usually carry patbingsu on their menus from May to September. Patbingsu is also very popular in jjimjilbang.
Patbingsu is also a very popular dessert at cafés in New York's, Los Angeles', or Atlanta's Koreatown.[6]
