A lot of people have heard of raspados, piraguas, or shaved iced, in Colombia they have something called a cholado. The cholado consists of shave iced, flavored syrup such as: passionfruit and raspberry, a fruit salad (bananas papayas, passionfruit, lulo, strawberries and apple) topped off with more fruit syrup, shaved coconut, condensed milk, chocolate (in some places), apple slices, and wafer cookies, lastly the one I would always get would come with a big ball of ice cream on top. This is my favorite dessert I tried during my trip because it refreshing, tart and sweet, and with an assortment of fruits so you would not feel like you were eating a dessert. Cholados are something served in Cali, Colombia year round because it is always warm/ hot, so if you are ever visiting I would totally recommend eating this “healthy” treat. Down below is a picture and also a link to a quick video from CaliTV.
