Prepare the Sweet Coconut Milk
In a small bowl or jug, whisk together the coconut milk and sweetened condensed milk until fully combined and smooth. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more condensed milk if desired. Refrigerate the mixture until ready to use so it stays chilled.
Prepare the Fruit Components
Cut the ripe avocado into small cubes, removing the skin and pit. Shred the young coconut flesh into thin strips if it is not already prepared. Drain the canned jackfruit well and slice into small bite-sized pieces. Keep all fruit components refrigerated until assembly.
Assemble the Dessert
Fill four large glasses or bowls with generous portions of shaved or crushed ice. Divide the cubed avocado, shredded young coconut, and sliced jackfruit evenly among the glasses, placing the fruit artfully on and around the ice.
Finish and Serve
Pour the chilled sweet coconut milk mixture generously over each glass of fruit and ice. Optionally add a few cubes of grass jelly or a drizzle of rose syrup for extra color and flavor. Serve immediately with a long spoon before the ice melts and the dessert becomes diluted.
