MANILA, Philippines — Just by looking at the drink with its vibrant red and green Gulaman cubes set against the pure white milk drink, it pairs well with merienda treats, such as cakes and pastries.
Mr. Hat Gulaman, with its natural seaweed extract, has seven flavors and a few colored but unflavored variants to help you custom-create Gulaman-based desserts and drinks. Two of these flavors — Mr. Hat Gulaman Orange Flavored and Mr. Hat Gulaman Buko Pandan Flavored — plus the Mr. Hat Gulaman Red Unflavored variant are used in this special Sago Gulaman Milk Drink.
