/Sounds like "rahs" (as in "rapper") + "PAH" (as in "park") + "oh" (as in "oh")/
A shaved ice drink soaked in tropical fruit syrups, sold from street carts in Colombia and Venezuela. The go-to treat on a hot day: finely shaved ice piled high and drenched in whatever flavor you pick, from tamarind to mango to passion fruit.
“An ice-cold tamarind raspao is the best thing for this heat.”
“The kids sprint to the raspao cart the second they hear it coming.”
