Tokyo Bay Shiomi Prince Hotel Launches "Matcha Shaved Ice Afternoon Tea ~Matcha x Summer Fruits Escape~" Featuring Yatsugatake Natural Ice and "Swicy" Summer Sweets

Tokyo Bay Shiomi Prince Hotel (Location: 2-8-16 Shiomi, Koto-ku, Tokyo; General Manager: Yoshihiro Yano) will sell the "Matcha Shaved Ice Afternoon Tea ~Matcha x Summer Fruits Escape~" at its restaurant, "Restaurant & Bar TIDE TABLE Shiomi," from Wednesday, July 1 to Monday, August 31, 2026.

The "Matcha Afternoon Tea," which has been highly popular since spring, arrives as a summer-exclusive menu starring refreshing "matcha shaved ice." The theme this time is "Edo (Past) x TOKYO (Present)." The hotel offers an afternoon tea that has evolved into a new style by fusing traditional Japanese ingredients, such as "matcha" which has been widely enjoyed and passed down since the Edo period, with contemporary TOKYO trends.

The specialty is the "Matcha and Melon 'Swicy' Shaved Ice." Based on fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth shaved ice made using rare natural ice from the famous water region at the southern foot of Yatsugatake, enjoy the harmony created by matcha and summer fruits, primarily melon. Inside the shaved ice, layers of jelly made with the Japanese ingredient "shiso" (perilla) and fresh melon marinated in herbs are added. It is finished with a generous pour of matcha cream, creating a deep flavor where the rich aroma of matcha and the juicy fruitiness are in perfect balance.

Furthermore, the "Chunky Mango Sauce" served alongside the shaved ice is a luxurious blend of mango puree and white chocolate sauce with chunks of mango flesh, topped with a layer of coconut sauce. Pouring the sauce as you eat the shaved ice creates a change in flavor, allowing you to experience a variety of tastes down to the very last bite.

There are 6 types of sweets prepared, featuring items where the rich flavor of matcha is the star, as well as those abundantly using summer fruits like mango and melon. By combining matcha and fruits with the scents of herbs and Japanese citrus, guests can enjoy an exciting newness and flavor while feeling a hint of nostalgia. The savory lineup consists of 3 items accented with spices and saltiness. They create a pleasant expansion of flavor while enhancing the sweetness of the shaved ice and sweets.

Additionally, the welcome drink, "Matcha and Citrus Soda," is a sparkling beverage that harmonizes the refreshing tartness of lemon with the mild bitterness of matcha. It gorgeously kicks off the summer afternoon tea experience.

Enjoy a refreshing moment exclusively available this summer, woven from Japanese tradition and modern sensibility, in the spacious restaurant.

* Swicy means "Sweet + Spicy = Swicy." A style of enjoying flavors that multiply sweetness and spiciness.

Specialty

■ Matcha and Melon "Swicy" Shaved Ice with Chunky Mango Sauce

Fluffy matcha shaved ice using rare natural ice made in the famous water village at the southern foot of Yatsugatake in Yamanashi Prefecture.

The shaved ice is based on matcha and melon syrup, layered with melon jelly using the Japanese ingredient "shiso," and fresh melon marinated in sudachi citrus, salt, and dill. It is further topped with a generous amount of thick matcha cream and garnished with matcha powder, melon, and gold leaf for a glamorous appearance. The separately served sauce generously uses fresh mango flesh. By adding pink pepper as a secret ingredient, a refreshing spicy accent is added to the sweetness, creating a summer-limited "Swicy" dish where guests can also enjoy changes in flavor.

* Once the natural ice made in the famous water village at the southern foot of Yatsugatake in Yamanashi Prefecture runs out, the dish will be served using regular natural water shaved ice.
