- 0.5 cup Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Rinse the red adzuki beans under cold water to remove any impurities.
In a medium saucepan, combine the red beans and water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

In a large bowl, combine the red bean paste, low-fat milk, non-fat Greek yogurt, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until smooth.
Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, ensuring it is thoroughly cold.
