Day 37: Shaved Ice from Ulalani (Maui)


My first shaved ice was on Oahu island. For me, the secret to a good shaved ice is the condensed milk which gives it a milky texture. So I found this place by visiting all the stores and seeing if they made the effort to put on condensed milk - otherwise you're just eating a slush puppie. The second secret is the ice, which has to be so soft, it feels like ice cream in your mouth. The third secret is copious amounts of syrup. I hate dilute flavoured ice. Just not good.

Ulalani's is all of that. And an amazing atmosphere underneath a beautiful tree where you can escape the heat. Lime flavour, mango, guava, and coconut are amazing.

See below for a sign outside the window as to why it is so good.
