Summer is here and it’s hot outside. Why not cool yourself down with a refreshing glass or bowl of Halo Halo? Halo Halo, which means “mix mix” in Tagalog, is the Philippine’s version of a shaved ice dessert. Its origins can be traced back to the Japanese shaved ice dessert, Kakigori. In turn, Kakigori has influenced different shaved ice treats all over Asia and even in Hawaii.

Though Halo Halo is usually ultra colorful with jellies and assorted toppings of different bright colors from store-bought jars, my family’s Kapampangan version is more muted in color and consists of multiple handmade ingredients. Would you call this artisanal Halo Halo? Either way this is my favorite way to enjoy this treat.
