Rose Lychee Shaved Ice: Flavor & Pairings

What does Rose Lychee taste like?

Rose Lychee shaved ice is perfumed, delicate — the kind of flavor that makes people close their eyes on the first spoonful. Its pink color comes through beautifully in fluffy hand-shaved snow, so it looks as good as it tastes.

Because our snow is shaved fresh rather than crushed, rose lychee syrup soaks evenly through every ribbon instead of pooling at the bottom. That means the last bite is just as flavorful as the first.

Where Rose Lychee comes from

Rose Lychee traces back to a florist's daydream, and it carries a little of that place in every spoonful. A whisper of rose turns lychee into something that tastes like a garden.

Part of the fun of a shaved ice menu is that it's a passport — a single counter can hop from a Hawaiian beach to a Taiwanese night market to a desert roadside stand.

Best toppings for rose lychee shaved ice

Our favorite way to serve it is with raspberry and pistachio, which balances the sweetness and adds texture. A few more combinations worth trying:

• Fresh fruit that echoes the flavor, cut into little cubes
• A jelly or boba for a chewy contrast
• A drizzle of condensed milk or coconut cream to round it out
• A tiny sugar blossom on top, because we can't help ourselves
