OIMO TOKYO Unveils Its Refreshing 2026 Shaved Ice Menu
As spring gives way to summer, the much-anticipated annual opening of OIMO TOKYO in Nakameguro is officially here. Starting from May 2, 2026, this gluten-free establishment will introduce two mouth-watering shaved ice options: the beloved ‘Hojicha Shaved Ice’ and the exciting new ‘Strawberry Ice’.
The Stunning Strawberry Ice
The highlight of this year's menu is the visually stunning ‘Strawberry Ice’ priced at ¥2,400, crafted with a subtle sweet potato twist. This dessert is not just charming to look at, but it invites your taste buds on an unforgettable journey. Each spoonful reveals a commitment to quality ingredients that engage all five senses.
OIMO TOKYO uses pure ice made from filtered water that is meticulously frozen to create transparent ‘juhyo’ (pure ice). This type of ice melts slowly, helping to preserve the flavors of the ingredients as you savor each bite. The star of the dish is the homemade syrup made from abundant local strawberries, creating a sweet and tangy explosion in your mouth. It is beautifully complemented by a rich sweet potato whip that adds depth to the flavor, making it an irresistible combination.
The emphasis on quality continues with the syrup itself. Instead of using granulated sugar, chefs have opted for cane sugar and brown sugar, enhancing the natural sweetness of the sweet potatoes. As you continue indulging, you’ll discover layers of sweet condensed milk, creamy soft serve, chunks of fresh strawberries, and crunchy crumble, offering a delightful variety of textures. Hidden within is a matcha syrup using Izumo matcha, known for its mellow sweetness and depth, elevating the experience to new heights.
Hojicha Shaved Ice: A Classic Favorite
Returning for another year, the ‘Hojicha Shaved Ice’, priced at ¥2,200, is perfect for those who appreciate a more sophisticated flavor profile. This dessert is created from specialty hojicha tea blends crafted exclusively for OIMO TOKYO by the Shizuoka-based 'Chaji Hen' tea project. The hojicha, infused with hints of cinnamon and ginger, is paired with luxuriously creamy sweet potato cream and frozen silk sweet potato, creating an indulgent base.
As you delve deeper, the texture changes with the addition of hojicha jelly and gluten-free hazelnut cookies, enhancing the overall experience with varied crunch and melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness.
Both of these items symbolize the philosophy of OIMO TOKYO—a focus on premium sweet potato combinations with carefully selected ingredients—for a unique shaved ice experience that you can only find here.
Experience a Taste of Summer
In its commitment to gluten-free offerings, OIMO TOKYO aims to provide a safe option for health-conscious individuals and families. This summer, they invite you to treat yourself to one of their delectable bowls that seamlessly blends the creaminess of sweet potatoes with refreshing shaved ice, embodying the essence of indulgence on a hot day.
