In a pot bring 8 cups water to a rolling boil. Slowly pour 1 cup small tapioca pearls into the boiling water all the while stirring to prevent them from clumping.
Boil for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are completely translucent. They can have a tiny dot of white and be ready. Taste them and if they don't taste crunchy, they're ok to remove.
Drain the tapioca pearls through a sieve and rinse with cold water. Leave in the cold water until the next steps are ready.
Right before using in the next steps drain the sago through a sieve.
While the sago is cooking, blend the coconut-mango mixture.
To a blender add 14 oz coconut milk or evaporated milk, 6 oz sweetened condensed milk and 1 lb mango fresh or frozen. Blend until smooth.
To a large bowl add the blended mango-coconut mixture and the strained tapioca pearls.
Drain the 35 oz coconut agar jelly*, 2 lb mango bubble boba* and/or any other jelly you would like to add. Add it to the above mixture.
Reserve the drained liquid in the fridge, to thin the mango sago if needed *See notes*.
If you prefer the mango sago to be chilled, refrigerate mango sago until thoroughly chilled, about 3 hours.
Peel 3-4 large mangoes and discard the pit. Cube the mangoes.
Layer the chilled pudding and the cubed mango in a cup and serve.
Alternatively, you can mix the cubed mango in the bowl, then serve.
Use the reserved drained liquid from the jelly and the popping boba to thin the pudding back to the consistency you want.
