halo halo
Halo-halo, officially spelled haluhalo, Tagalog for "mix-mix," is a popular cold dessert in the Philippines made up of crushed ice, evaporated milk or coconut milk, and various ingredients including ube jam (ube halaya), sweetened kidney or garbanzo beans, coconut strips, sago, gulaman (agar), pinipig, boiled taro or soft yams in cubes, flan, slices or portions of fruit preserves and other root crop preserves. The dessert is topped with a scoop of ube . It is usually prepared in a tall clear glass and served with a long spoon. Halo-halo is considered to be the unofficial national dessert of the Philippines. The term "halo-halo" translates to "mix-mix" in English because the dessert is meant to be mixed before being consumed. This spelling has come to describe any object or situation composed of a similar, colorful combination of ingredients.
