Soak the diced water chestnuts in red food coloring and water until they absorb the vibrant color.




Drain the water chestnuts and toss them thoroughly in tapioca starch until each piece is evenly coated.





Bring a large pot of water to a boil and drop in the coated water chestnuts, cooking until they float and become translucent.




Use a slotted skimmer to remove the cooked water chestnuts and immediately plunge them into an ice water bath to set the texture.





In a saucepan, gently heat the coconut milk with sugar until dissolved, then allow it to cool completely.




Serve the mock pomegranate seeds in bowls topped with the sweetened coconut milk and crushed ice.
