If you like soft serve come on in and give this place a try. They are inside Mitsuwa Marketplace on the 2nd level of International Marketplace (Kuhio Ave side). The flavors they offer are matcha (green tea), hojicha (roasted green tea), black sesame, vanilla, and mango which is seasonal. The soft serve is light, sweet, and creamy. It's the perfect snack to keep you cool while you shop around the mall. The small size is under $5 and the large size is about $7. If you don't want soft serve, you can also get drinks like green tea, lattes, or shakes.
I decided to take a stroll to check out Mitsuwa Marketplace. Found this cute little store inside. I love everything matcha so I couldn't resist. I also love boba which was perfect because you can add boba as topping for a shake. They had several flavors: matcha, houjicha, vanilla and one more I can't remember. Of course I went for matcha with the boba. The price was a little more than regular boba tea for the serving size but they do give Kama'aina discount if you're eligible. The matcha was spot on. Not too sweet but not lacking sweetness that would've rendered it bitter. It hit, at least for me, the sweet spot. The boba was a little disappointing however. It was undercooked. I consume boba almost every week it's crazy... so I know undercooked boba vs perfectly cooked boba when I bite on one. It may have been that one batch unfortunately for me. Those pearls needed a little more cooking. Overall I liked the atmosphere and friendly service. I'd definitely go back for more matcha goodness.
Creamy matcha ice cream goodness, roasted tea also a hit~! Just like the Japanese creamy soft serves... nommmyyy
