Ingredients

  • 1 (12 oz) Halo Halo Sweet Fruit Mix
  • 2 cups shaved ice
  • ¼ - ½ cup evaporated milk
  • 1 tablespoon sweetened condensed milk optional

For the Topping:

  • ube ice cream
  • vanilla ice cream

Instructions

Layer the halo halo

  • Add the halo halo mixed fruit to the bottom of a tall serving glass.
  • Fill the glass with shaved ice until about ⅔ to ¾ full.

Add the milk and toppings

  • Pour the evaporated milk evenly over the shaved ice.
  • Drizzle sweetened condensed milk on top, if using.
  • Top with 1 scoop of ube ice cream.

Serve

  • Serve immediately while cold and enjoy. Mix everything together before eating for the best flavor.

Notes

  • If you can’t find a prepared halo halo mix jar, you can easily make your own using simple ingredients from the grocery store. Try using sweetened red beans or sweetened white beans, coconut jelly, sliced mango, chopped burro bananas, and a little crushed rice cereal or crispy rice for texture. For the best halo halo flavor, I recommend using at least 2 fruits along with either red beans or white beans.
 
  • You can also top your halo halo with leche flan, jackfruit, pinipig, coconut strips, or extra sweetened beans for even more texture and flavor.
