Uncle Clay's House Of Pure Aloha

We visited several shaved ice shops on the island and found that they were all too sweet with artificial flavors. Clay's, however, uses real fruit which makes the treat truly refreshing! We also appreciate that they offer a small size option. If you're looking for a bite to eat before enjoying your sweet treat, there's a vegan cafe just a few doors down.

I found Uncle Clay's HOPA to be good, offering some interesting flavors like matcha and lilikoi. While I wasn't overly impressed, it may be because I couldn't try their fancy options made with dairy milk due to my preference for non-dairy. Nevertheless, it's a fantastic spot to visit on a warm day for a refreshing treat.

The long line at this restaurant is completely worth it. I was pleased to discover that their shave ice is made with organic sugar (bone char free) and real fruit, rather than artificial coloring and corn syrup. I ordered the strawberry with haupia sauce, and also sampled my partner's guava and pineapple flavors. It was delicious and very refreshing. I would give it 5 stars, but I save the 5th star for vegan-only establishments.

We sampled a few shaved ice spots on the island, but found them all to be overly sweet and artificial. However, Clay uses real fruits in their shaved ice, giving it a truly refreshing taste! We appreciate that they offer a smaller size option as well. There is a vegan café next door where you can grab a bite before indulging in the sweet treat at Clay.

I had high hopes for Onkel Clay's Hopa, as they offered some interesting flavors like matcha and lilikoi. While I wasn't completely impressed, it could be because I couldn't try some of their more fashionable options that contain dairy. Overall, it's a nice spot to stop by on a hot day for a refreshing and tasty treat.
