Sili ice cream is a Filipino ice cream flavor prepared using labuyo chili, coconut milk, puréed strawberries and sugar. It was invented by the 1st Colonial Grill restaurant in Albay in 2004 and has since become a highly popular flavor. It is associated with and inspired by the regional cuisine of Bicol, which characteristically serves spicy dishes in coconut milk.{{cite news |last1=Jaucian |first1=Micheal B. |title='Hot' ice cream a hit in Bicol |url=https://newsinfo.inquirer.net/776863/hot-ice-cream-a-hit-in-bicol |access-date=17 January 2024 |newspaper=Philippine Daily Inquirer |date=30 March 2016}}{{cite news |last1=Conde |first1=Mavic |title=In Bicol, indulge in sili ice cream and more spicy sweets |url=https://www.rappler.com/life-and-style/food-drinks/159106-must-try-spicy-sweet-desserts/ |access-date=17 January 2024 |work=Rappler |date=4 February 2017}}{{cite news |last1=Dinshaw |first1=Khursheed |title=Bicolano Cuisine in the Philippines |url=https://www.whetstonemagazine.com/journal/bicolano-cuisine-in-the-philippines |access-date=17 January 2024 |work=Whetstone}}{{cite news |title=Sili Ice Cream, the Spicy One from Bicol |url=https://silverbackpacker.com/sili-ice-cream-the-spicy-one/ |access-date=17 January 2024 |work=SilverBackpacker}}{{cite web |last1=Faicol |first1=Bea |title=This Famous Sili Ice Cream From Bicol Now Delivers To Metro Manila |url=https://www.yummy.ph/news-trends/1st-colonial-sili-ice-cream-metro-manila-delivery-a00260-20200808 |website=Yummy.ph |access-date=17 January 2024}}
