The official start of summer is not yet declared by PAGASA but we’re already experiencing its telltale signs: the heat of the days are getting closer to the above-normal body temperature level. Loose clothes are making a fashion comeback. And everybody seems to be headed to air-conditioned shopping malls and beaches.
However, there is another telltale sign that’s distinctly Filipino. Our unquenchable craving for halo-halo!
Halo-Halo is both a traditional and very popular dessert among Pinoys. And around summertime, it becomes everybody’s favorite merienda. It is a mixture of a variety of fruits that come together underneath a bed of shaved ice and milk, enticingly topped with a scoop of ice cream, a slice of leche flan, and a spoonful of ube. No matter what variation or combination of ingredients you are used to, the mouthwatering Halo-Halo will always be the Pambansang Summer Quencher for every Filipino.
