Iced Drinks in Waikiki: Cold Brew, Boba & Shave Ice From $5.35
Every cold thing on our menu with real prices, ranked by how fast it cools you down — about 5 minutes from Waikiki Beach.
It's mid-afternoon on Kalākaua, you've been on the sand since ten, and what you want is cold, right now. The counter at Kona Coffee Donut (the drink side is called Mochi Land) runs a long cold menu in one place: Kona cold brew, iced lattes, iced matcha in a dozen flavors, sealed boba cans, smoothies, fresh lemonades and Hawaiian shave ice. Below is the whole cold lineup with the prices we actually charge, grouped from 'brain freeze' to 'cold caffeine', plus a cheat sheet for what to order on each kind of hot day. Everything here is served 7 AM to 9 PM daily at 2142 Kalākaua Ave.
Cold Drinks From $5.35, Open Until 9 PM
Iced Americano $5.35, Kona Cold Brew $6.95, boba cans $8.95, smoothies from $10.95, shave ice $12.95. 2142 Kalākaua Ave, about 5 minutes from Waikiki Beach.
Coldest: Hawaiian Shave Ice ($12.95) and Milk Bingsu ($15.95)
If the goal is pure temperature, nothing beats a mountain of shaved ice. Our Hawaiian shave ice comes in five island flavors — Waikiki Rainbow, Paradise Lilikoi, Volcano Island, Coco Head and Tropical Jungle — at $12.95. Korean-style milk bingsu ($15.95) is shaved from frozen milk instead of water, so it's creamier, and one bowl is easily enough for two.
Most Refreshing: Smoothies and Lemonade
Twelve classic smoothies are $10.95: mango, strawberry, piña colada, lychee, coconut, ube, taro, Thai tea, milk tea, brown sugar, chai and coffee. The four premium fruit smoothies — açaí berry, strawberry banana, coconut pineapple and mango coconut lilikoi — are $12.95. Add chewy boba to any smoothie for $1.95. For something lighter, our lemonades (classic, lilikoi, mango, strawberry) are $8.95.
Easiest to Carry: Sealed Boba Cans ($8.95)
Our boba milk teas come in tall cans sealed to order — Classic, Brown Sugar, Ube, Coffee, Thai Tea and Matcha, all $8.95. Sealed means no leaks in a beach bag, so it's the drink that travels best back to the sand, the pool or the hotel lanai.
Cold Caffeine: Cold Brew, Iced Lattes and Iced Matcha
When you need the caffeine but not the heat:
- •Iced Americano — $5.35, the cheapest cold coffee on the menu
- •Iced latte — $6.35 (oat, coconut, soy, almond or macadamia milk +$1)
- •Kona Cold Brew — $6.95, smooth and low-acid
- •Iced matcha latte — $9.95, or with mango, guava, lilikoi, coconut or banana for the same price
