Kuromitsu Kinako is a halo-halo with a "Japanese" taste that is inspired by Okinawa's "Kuromitsu shaved ice." The black honey syrup, which is the decisive factor for the taste, uses brown sugar from Yonaguni Island, Okinawa Prefecture, and is said to have an elegant taste that "maximizes" the taste of brown sugar. It is topped with soft-serve ice cream vanilla, warabimochi with a chewy texture, and kinako made from Hokkaido soybeans. The price is 290 yen (tax included, same below).

White peach is a halo halo that combines rich and mellow white peach syrup, ice, halo halo jelly, and soft serve vanilla. White peach from Yamanashi prefecture is used. The price is 270 yen.

Ramune is a classic halo-halo with a refreshing and refreshing taste and bright blue that makes you feel summer. The price is 270 yen.
