Thank you for sharing, I’m cooking island Māori and always have wondered how this yummy spring was made. No I can make it for my family appriciate yous making this video
To everyone crying about the sugar ! Adding in sugar is very much needed because after you dilute the melon and milk (cream in his case) with the water it tastes abit 🥴 sooo adding in alot of sugar is part of the otai recipe however every household and every tongan do their’s differently and it’s not like you have to do it exactly how he’s doing it so if you ever make this tongan drink then feel free to leave out the sugar and add in what you please malo aupito !
agreed! also every melon isn't the same, u might buy one thats super sweet then u buy another one and find out its not very sweet (happens all the time in the states😪)
That is exactly the same tool Malaysian people use to scrape coconut to make coconut milk. But they also have machines, round shaped that scrape it faster
As an Italian-Samoan, I love this Tongan Pasefika fruit drink. I usually buy more than 2 at the yearly PASEFIKA FESTIVAL in Auckland, N.Z. My aunty uses Highlander sweet condense milk n BRAVO....Bless our Pasefika family n food n beverage delicatessen. Ofa atu Toko n thanks for this great Clip.
That watermelon is massive. When the watermelons first come out, our local Countdown charges $8.50/kg so that watermelon would cost heaps. When the season is almost over they drop it down to $1.50/kg so we wait until they drop the price.
Never tried this watermelon drink before, it looks ok but, the sugar contents and cream bit, is just a little sweet for me. but, will try it anyhow with the fresh coconut.
Nice...nice..yu had a fijian music on, which makes the otai as delicious ad ever. Thank yu,as i have tasted otai thru a samoan friend of mine and loved it.

Tf too much sugar. That’s why there’s so many Tongan funerals!!
May be they are helping them from a diabetic view point lol

"Crack it between the eyes first in order to ummm to ummm have a good crack" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 for real tho I love this 💕
Don’t put thicken cream,use coconut milk ,that’s the original one
Should you use coconut water instead as well? I love authentic recipes and can't seem to find one on Otai.
@@mmcnab802 yes you can use coconut water but there is no need for it! Water is fine
My dad always make meleni Otai with coconut! I used to shave the coconut with a spoon
I loved watching u make otai. Iv never tried it but i love watermeon. I cant wait to try this myself. Thank you🙂
I make my otai in the same container haaa..love it❣️❣️
Omg my cousin who used to live with us back in the days, her ex boyfriend was Tongan and ALWAYS made this with coconut!! Saaaaaa gooood!!! 🤤🤤🤤
Can you use coconut cream, instead of white cream?
This samoan drink originate
nice and smooth crack👀😂

Good on ya brother!! Love it
Dang I’ve never had otai with coconut .Unless I’ve just never noticed the taste.Loveeeee otai.The cream can also be carnation?

Hahah when he says we’re u can get the hakalo from like bruh tell someone to send u one 😂😂😂🤦♀️
Awesome tutorial.
Can you mix it with mango in it?
gene vulaca yes, you can even add pineapple (use crushed pineapple from the can with the juice).
Yes... So many ways..and use what you got
Adding crushed pineapples is good w it especially watermelon otai. I'd recommend using milk tho not cream
i cut the skin off and use a grater to grate the watermelon :) very fast and less mess lol ifo atu ho otai xx
I never thought of that! Good tip!!
Tonga otai.... with a fiji bucket biscuits and the Owaidebala Fijian song too... 😂

U can use half n half, or moca mix or organic coconut milk
? Adding sugar and cream

So original otai is just watermelon and not together with pineapple?
BIGG WEST can go with a mango.
Nice...nice..yu had a fijian music on, which makes the otai as delicious ad ever. Thank yu,as i have tasted otai thru a samoan friend of mine and loved it.
Nice vid toko! And 1kg = 1L, so that 5kg bucket is 5L haha
Oh yummy! When I was in Samoa recently, I had drink called banana juice at the market. Is it something similar??
Yeah its a bit similar to this in samoa they use coconut to make banana drink
