Mango Shaved Ice (Charlotte)

Down the street from our Taipei apartment, about a ten minute walk, there is a fun shopping street called Yong Kang. Tucked between the tree lined avenue and some clothing stores is a shop that sells large mango shaved ice desserts. The first time I saw a mango ice, it looked very big. Like a mountain. It was orange and had big chunks of mango and fluffy white snow ice. 



Heaped on top of the shaved ice, there were bobas, sweet red beans and taro mochi, with a drizzle of condensed milk on top. It tasted very sweet and fruity. The whole platter costs $6 USD. I loved it. Mango shaved ice is my favorite dessert. I hope we can find it when we come home to Mercer Island this summer.
