Sago't Gulaman is a very popular refreshment. In
restaurants it is served in a tall, footed glass, in neighborhood stores it is ladled into
plastic cups and in street stands it is simply poured into plastic bags and provided with
straw. It can be taken as an after-meal beverage-dessert, a snack or a drink to accompany
another merienda item. Sago itself is also seen in Tahu, Ginataan and Ginumis while
gulaman which is made from seaweed called agar-agar can be eaten as a gelatin dessert with
or without fruits.
