intermixture
Things mixed together
Intermixture is the act of mixing things together or the result of such mixing—a blend of different elements: The city's culture reflects an intermixture of immigrant traditions.
The word emphasizes that distinct components have been combined while remaining somewhat identifiable within the whole, unlike a homogeneous mixture where origins disappear.
