Halo halo (pronounced HAH-lo HAH-lo, not Hay-lo Hay-lo)

Just wanted to show that my dad and I did in fact make halo halo for dessert before I left the USA.


Here I am pouring in the milk right before eating. We used all the traditional stuff (coconut gel, fruit mix with sweet red bean, shave ice). We didn't have any ube (purple sweet potato) ice cream, though, so rather than use an inferior ice cream, we just did without it.


Dad put an extra slice of jackfruit on top of mine. Aw.

Oh yum. Jackfruit is so lovely.

May your next halo halo have all the goodies you want in it. :D

Thank you! I enjoyed it as it was, but I think I will enjoy it even more when it has ube ice cream...

Now I want some! It looks so good. Haven't had any in 20 years.

It is delicious. Very sweet though. Definitely not for those who prefer umami. ;)

All the NOM NOM NOMs :DDD

[nanila]

YES, MANY NOMS. :D

Looks good. :)

It was good, even without the ube. The one I had at the restaurant at Thanksgiving didn't have any jackfruit, though it did have ube. My next quest is to find halo halo that has both!

\o/ Most refreshing dessert! (Except maybe for shave ice on a really hot day.)
