Dalgona

Originating from South Korea, Dalgona coffee is essentially whipped coffee poured over milk, sometimes topped with dalgona candy (a sponge toffee-like candy from Korea). It was perhaps one of the recipe trends that had the most attempts made during the lockdown. Even if you’re not into coffee, you can try some other variety like chocolate or strawberry. Maybe even just for the ‘Gram. And if you’re looking for more dalgona coffee-like ideas, see some more recipes here.

 

Milo Dinosaur

If you loooooooove chocolate, this one’s for you. All you need is cream, condensed milk, ice, and Milo powder, and you’re good to go! It probably won’t even take you ten minutes. See the full recipe here.

 

Ice Candy

Wanna feel like a child again, running on the streets, playing patintero or luksong baka, and heading to the local sari-sari store to ask manang what kind of ice candy they have? See the full recipe here.

 

Graham Cake

Mango float or mango graham cake — whatever you call that, it will always be a classic Pinoy cold dessert. Not only does it taste amazing, it’s easy to prepare, too. And it’d definitely help you cool down. No mango? You can try other fruits like peach, too!

Con Hielo

Another classic, con hielos are easy to make with even easier-to-procure ingredients. On top of the usual mais con hielo and saba con hielo, you can try making mani, kamote, and mangga con hielo to bring new flavors to this Pinoy classic dessert.

 

Soft Serve Ice Cream

Any ice cream you would order would probably be melting by the time your delivery guy arrives at your door. So why not make your own? And put your own Pinoy twist into it with mangoes! See the full recipe here.

 

Mango Sago

Too impatient to wait for the soft serve ice cream to cool down? Mix some mango and sago with milk and ice for an easy quick fix. See the full recipe here.

 

Ginataan na Bilo-Bilo Bingsu

Bingsu is pretty much like halo-halo, with shaved ice topped with sweets like fruit, milk, syrup, and the like. Why not try it at home but with a Pinoy twist? Top it with ginataan na bilo-bilo! See the full recipe here.
