■ "Pina Colada Shaved Ice" - A Taste Like a Tropical Dessert
Every summer, Keio Plaza Hotel offers uniquely designed shaved ice menus. This year, several bartenders from the gathered to express the hotel's original "Pina Colada" cocktail recipe in shaved ice form. A typical Pina Colada is made with rum, pineapple juice, and coconut milk, but Keio Plaza Hotel adds orange juice and mango syrup to create a more fruity and mellow sweet cocktail. The newly introduced shaved ice takes inspiration from this original recipe, allowing guests to savor the tropical harmony of pineapple, coconut, mango, and orange.
Cocktail & Tea Lounge Interior
■ A Luxurious Appearance with Abundant Summer Fruits like Pineapple and Mango
This luxurious shaved ice is generously topped with fresh pineapple and mango, crispy coconut chips, and other tropical fruits. Furthermore, the addition of pineapple leaves and orchid flower decorations gives it a summery and elegant appearance.
■ Bartenders Express Original "Pina Colada" in Shaved Ice
Coconut milk ice is topped with mango syrup, tropical espumas of mango and pineapple, and coconut-flavored whipped cream. The fruity elements unique to Keio Plaza Hotel's "Pina Colada" are incorporated into the shaved ice to express the original recipe. In addition, the separate blood orange syrup is finished by the bartenders with a shake, making it a masterpiece crafted with the "Shaved Ice Presented by Bartenders" concept in mind.
■ Calculated Flavor Balance with "Pineapple Stewed in Homemade Ginger Syrup" and "Blood Orange Syrup"
As a flavor accent, pineapple stewed in "homemade ginger syrup" made with several spices such as cloves, cardamom, and cinnamon is topped. Furthermore, by pouring the optional "blood orange syrup" over it, a refreshing orange aroma is added, tightening the flavor.
■ Bartender's Favorite Pure Ice is a Perfect Match for Syrup and Ingredients!
For the ice, we use "Kakuori," pure ice favored by bartenders and produced by Shinjuku Ice Co., Ltd. Pure ice is made from water with strict quality control, carefully manufactured by artisans skilled in ice-making techniques, containing no impurities. Drinking water is filtered multiple times and meticulously finished over 48 hours. It melts slowly, gently dissolving in the mouth when eaten, and pairs exceptionally well with syrups and ingredients.
