Shave Ice is one of Hawaii’s specialty treats that locals and visitors enjoy. It is a steady frozen dessert for many children growing up in Hawaii. When it is hot in the islands, this cold refreshing treat definitely cools you off and is a steady companion when beating the heat. Shave ice or Hawaiian shave ice is an ice-based dessert made by shaving a block of ice. Similar to that of a snow cone, shave ice differs in that the ice is shaved rather than crushed. Flavored syrups are added to the shave ice which are absorbed by the snow-like ice. It can be served with or without ice cream at the bottom of the cup. In addition, a sno cap of sweetened condensed milk can also be drizzled to the top.

Publicized heavy during Former President Barack Obama’s presidency, eating shaved ice was always something he ate during his winter vacations to Hawaii. However, Shaved Ice has been part of Hawaii’s history for many years and throughout the generations. Traces of its history to Japan, Shave Ice was brought to the Hawaiian islands by Japanese immigrants the late 1800’s. Known as kaki-gori (Japanese term for sweetened Shaved Ice), the shave ice has become iconic in the islands. It is also to have origins from China as early as the 7th Century.
