Discover the Mediterranean's Cool Secret: Meet Chilly Chilly

Southeast's Summer Ritual

During the peak heat, seeking shade and enjoying the sea when the sun softens is a local way of life. And the perfect, refreshing finish to such a day? Chilly Chilly.

What is Chilly Chilly and How Is It Prepared?

Chilly Chilly is not just a dessert; it's also a rebellion against the Mediterranean heat. Its preparation is quite simple, yet the flavor is unforgettable:

Base: The dessert's main body is created by cooking a pudding with starch, then chilling it to a jelly-like consistency.

Ice Layer: Shaved or finely crushed ice resembling snow is added on top of this pudding.

Final Touch: Finally, a special red syrup made from rose water or various fruits (sometimes powdered sugar) is drizzled over it.

This triple combination creates an instant ice-blast on your palate, especially on humid evenings. To watch a short video about Chilly Chilly, here click here
