Our fifth installment in our exploratory series is inspired by turon, one of the Philippines’ most beloved merienda treats.

Golden, crispy, and filled with sweet saba bananas (and often paired with ripe jackfruit), turon is the SWEET lumpia 😛. Influenced by the Chinese introduction of spring roll wrappers centuries ago, Filipinos transformed the technique using local ingredients, creating a dessert that has become a street food icon and a cherished part of Filipino culture. We wanted to honor that history by reimagining its familiar flavors in halo halo form.

Built on a base of housemade caramelized banana milk over ice, this special layers sweet coconut macapuno, brown sugar crystal boba, pandan jelly, coconut jelly, plantains, and jackfruit, then finishes with a flavorful plantain crema. It’s topped with crunchy cereal, a scratchmade coconut tuile representing a spring roll wrapper, a wafer stick, and scoops of our jackfruit chili nut ice cream for a playful tribute to this Filipino classic.

Contains: dairy, coconut, gluten/wheat, soy, and cashew. Available for dine-in or to go. This month—July!!

The fourth halo halo in our exploratory series is a vibrant homage to a classic Filipino flavor, pandan. In Filipino culture, pandan is a traditional and deeply comforting flavor. Often called the sister to ube— and she is stunning— pandan carries a fragrance that’s softly sweet, a little nutty, and beautifully unique. It is one of those flavors that’s hard to describe and truly impossible to imitate. For Filipinos, it transports us to special family gatherings (like birthday parties) and memories of simple everyday moments like merienda (our snack time).

Our take pairs pandan with coconut (two flavors often found together in Filipino cuisine). Youll find a halo halo layered with macapuno, housemade pandan jelly, brown sugar crystal boba, coconut nata de coco jelly, and crunchy cereals over pandan milk and shaved ice. It is finished with a scratch-made coconut tuile cookie bite, a traditional wafer stick, then topped with two scoops of creamy buko pandan ice cream.

Available for dine-in and to go. Dairy or vegan (without certain ingredients).

After years of being lovingly mispronounced, we’ve decided why fight it? LEAN IN.

Don’t worry, we’ll still respond if you say it the old way.

Our namesake flavor, Sampaguita, took a lot of planning, reflection, and feeling. It needed to live up to its literal name (jasmine), carry the meaning of “I promise you,” and also stay grounded in a core memory of my life. I wanted a flavor that felt as gentle and meaningful as the promise of sampaguita: something delicate and comforting. I also wanted something uniquely captured in ice cream like never before yet still familiar to the palate.

I thought of a dessert my mom used to make for me as a kid: a milky jelly with almond essence and lychee fruit (specifically from a can), mixed together with ice cubes. I knew I wanted to capture this memory in ice cream. This flavor is especially meaningful to me as it represents maternal love, one of the first and most profound loves we experience in life.

With every scoop, I hope you taste the love and intention behind it

03/23/2026

Over the next year, we’ll be sharing each of our flavors and the stories they carry. Some are rooted in childhood memories, others are inspired by timeless flavors of our heritage, shaped through the lens of the Filipino-American experience. All are created to bring people together and celebrate the spirit of the Filipino. We begin with how we named our store, and the creation of our namesake flavor, Sampaguita.

“Sampaguita” comes from the words sumpa kita or “I promise you.” To us, it’s a promise of love, memory, and everything that brought us here.

This is our story, our roots, and our why, and it became our very first flavor: a delicate blend of milk, almond, lychee, and jasmine, inspired by a childhood dessert, and a mother’s love.

From our heart to yours, we hope you enjoy!

Hi 👋 We’re Marie and Mo, the owners of Sampaguita.

We’ve been a couple since 2014 and we opened our first business, The Greenery Creamery, together in 2018. This is how we feel about working together:

Marie: “We are two sides of the same coin. We work really well with each other and fill in each others gaps. I get to experience the highs and lows of life and business with one of my favorite people. He gets it; he gets me. Not everyone can have (or wants) that dual relationship. We have intense trust in each other to carry out responsibilities.”

Mo: “It’s fun”

If you’ve ever stopped by one of our shops, thank you 🫶 It truly means everything to us.

We hope to introduce a little bit more about ourselves from time to time!

The next halo halo in our exploratory series features a halo halo inspired by Milo Dino, a popular Asian malted chocolate dessert. Layers of shaved ice with house-made oolong boba, rich chocolate jam, and condensed milk, topped with flan, Oreo, crunchy Cocoa Puffs, a crispy wafer stick, a dusting of Milo powder, and vanilla soft cream.
Our scratch-made oolong boba starts with carefully infused oolong tea (known for its naturally smooth, aromatic, and floral flavor) into tapioca. We craft our boba pearls in-house and cook them daily to achieve a balance of tenderness and chew.

This halo halo is available for one more weekend only at . Milo lovers, this one’s for you!

More about our Halo Halo Series:

What makes halo-halo so special is that every family and every home has their own unique way of making it, shaped by family recipes, regional ingredients, and personal preferences. At its core, it’s always made from the heart.

Our new Sampaguita Halo-Halo Series celebrates this Filipino spirit of creativity, adaptability, and tradition by introducing a fresh perspective with each release.

Along the way, we’re also exploring the idea of “authenticity” challenging the notion that there is only one true way for something to be real or valid, when in fact, authenticity lives in the diversity of stories, hands, and histories that create it. Just like the many layers of the dessert itself, each version tells its own story.

From our heart to yours, we hope you enjoy.
