Halo-halo, the Filipino word which means "mixture" or "mixed" (literally "mix-mix"), also spelled haluhalo, is a popular cold dessert in the Philippines made up of crushed ice, evaporated milk or condensed milk, and various ingredients including, ube, sweetened beans, coconut strips, sago, gulaman (agar), pinipig rice, boiled taro or soft yams in cubes, fruit slices, flan, and topped with a scoop of ube ice cream. Halo-halo is considered to be the dessert of the Philippines. By extension, the word has come to describe any object or situation that is composed of a similar, colorful mélange of ingredients.
