Halo-halo (from Tagalog halo, "mix") is a popular Filipino dessert that is a mixture of shaved ice, milk, and sugar, to which is added various sweet beans and fruits, and generally served cold in a tall glass.
There is no specific recipe for this dessert, and a wide variety of ingredients are used. The order in which the ingredients are added varies widely, but generally it is mixed together prior to serving. Primary ingredients include
red mungo beans, kidney beans, garbanzo beans, sugar palm fruit (kaong), coconut sport (macapuno), and
plantains. Other components may include
jackfruit (langka), star apple, tapioca or
sago, nata de coco, purple yam (ube) or
sweet potato (kamote), sweetened corn kernels or
pounded crushed rice (pinipig), flan or
custard, and
gelatin. Other fruits, such as
papayas, avocados, kiwifruit, or
cherries, may also be added. Some preparations also include
ice cream on top of the halo-halo.
Generally, condensed milk or evaporated milk is used instead of fresh milk, due to the tropical climate of the Philippines.
