these are my favorite japanese frozen
treats for the summer
[Music]
summer is here it is super hot outside
and what better way to cool down than
with a frozen treat so these are my
favorite
japanese ice cream and frozen treats
that you should definitely check out
some just because they are delicious and
others because they're just so
interesting
and i had to share all of them with you
in this video
but like always before i start if you
want to see what i'm doing on the daily
check out my instagram account and if
you guys want to help support the
channel
check out the japan march and if you
guys have any questions about japan or
japan travels
then check out my discord community that
all said let's cool it down with the
first frozen treat
number one gelato parm mix berry from
morinaga
so this one is some mixed berry
loveliness
it's interesting that it's called gelato
parm farm is the name of the brand they
have a
chocolate cupboard one yeah my mom
used to say farm but she would pronounce
it like parm oh really
yeah i wonder why they call it parm in
italian that means pop so why don't they
just call it palm
oh they made up this name from italian
yeah parma is ham the palm okay italian
i should know this i studied in italy
for a few months i did not study very
much
when i was there thing i love about this
is how red it is all the time
if you look closely you can see like the
strawberry
like the little black marks are they
seeds like on the skin
okay anyways let's take a bite
[Music]
wow all the time it has that premium
flavor to it it looks like it's going to
be like kind of hard
and kind of like a popsicle but when you
bite into it it's just
so soft and smooth inside but it has
like the little like strawberry
it's so soft you can just eat it with
your lips try to eat it with your lips
it's that soft has a
warning sign it will stick to your lips
really like it's so soft you can eat
with your lips and bright
no thank you oh it's very
fruity grandma tanginess i thought the
coatings is more like
sore bit more icy but it's not it's more
like jelly or
tastes kind of like the freshly made jam
kind of taste
number two ramune bar from morinaga
so whenever you see rabune then you know
you are in japan this is like their
go-to
summer drink just common for kids to
drink like during festivals or like just
any time in the summer
it's like a bottle that has like a
little ball at the top and you pop it
and the kids just love all the sugary
sugary goodness
this is their ice cream version so you
can see
just on the outside you have soda ice
it's like kind of like a hardness but on
the inside you also have like a soda
cream and then you have like little bits
of ramune as well let's do this
that reminds me of your childhood how do
you know
because you're japanese you want to
describe this one because this is like
more
of you than me it's like a japanese
kid's summer i i know it's good but
seriously me and paula has a
completely different taste on the ice
cream so this is like
i would never buy this
it's not as sweet as i thought it's
funny how it says budo
sukiti 100 pure sugar
i feel like the drink has more soda it's
hard to put carbonation in ice cream
and robin says puppy shower so it's
possible
they could but they decided not to to
make it like yeah
you know like it does say yes oh it does
yeah so there you go
for that soft sense of japanese summer
try
the ramune popsicle number three
shaved ice with strawberries and
condensed milk from 7-eleven
so this one is a little bit different it
isn't ice cream per se
but it is kind of in the category it's a
shaved ice
strawberry with condensed milk and you
can just
see how strawberry that is on top
honey we did a fruit there's a body
inside
niku is meat right like fruit pieces
it's 11
fruit pieces try to get a little bit of
both in there
you can see this shaved ice but what's
actually happened is that the condensed
milk has kind of like
soaked up in there just take a bite
[Music]
first of all you get the strawberry
chunks in there and you can really
really taste the strawberry do get the
sweetness
from the strawberry pieces and chunks
but you also get like even
more sweetness from the condensed milk
you have like these little pockets of
condensed milk it's just kind of
inside of the shaved ice it is on the
sweeter side but
it also has that kind of like nice
refined adult taste as well
hmm you like it right
i told you you'd like this one i
wouldn't buy it
well don't worry if you don't like this
i have more to share with you
number four parizaku choco mint parfait
from morinaga
so this one you can just never get wrong
it is the choco
mint parfait you can see all the
chocolate and mint goodness in there and
all the different layers
let's just pop this open and show you
how much i love this one when you look
at the top it looks like one of those
kaleidoscopes
are you getting sleepy
what the kaleidoscopes the kaleidoscope
is just like the one where you go like
this yeah
yeah but aren't you getting it
wow look at that i've got a big mouth i
love when you like punch it in there you
hear all like the crackling from the
chocolate that's kind of frozen in there
let's take a bite
now this is what you want on a summer's
day sweet
chocolatey minty fresh now some of that
vanilla in there
you cannot go wrong and then you have
like the crackling chocolate layers in
here
it's just perfect if you want something
minty chocolatey and just like a good
time
then this is oh can't waste anything
this is my recommendation number five
bokujo shibori affogato from guriko
had to include this one because it's a
little bit different than the other ones
it is the afagato flavor it is like ice
cream
and coffee all in one little sweet
package
you can see right there in the front it
says which means
farm and squeeze so farm squeezed it's
interesting because it says
farm to spoon do you think that's just
like marketing material
that's like let me see it's like
sterilization or whatever to the
container to the warehouse
to the combini to paulo's freezer
sitting there with all the other treats
that if michael gets mad because have so
much ice cream
what are you gonna eat this ice cream
i'm saving it all up for the next video
so you probably bought the most out of
like any of the pdf you did in the past
it's a summer time like i have to kind
of choose my favorite ones who knows
maybe they are right so
they have this all around the outside
they have espresso
ice and then on the inside they have the
ice cream oh you can hear the crunch
oh look at that
see the layer of the outer shell
first thing that hits you is that
espresso coffee taste the vanilla they
use
it's really sweet so it kind of pairs
well with the bitterness of the coffee
taste
sometimes like vanilla it's just really
not so strong but this one is like
really really sweet so it pairs really
really well
the coffee is also sweetened this is
like one of those like perfect
morning ice creams you know i don't
think a lot of people ask ice cream am i
the only one
my stomach has never heard from eating
ice cream your stomach is like an
animal what kind of animal coffee coffee
butter
what's copybara that's what i look like
this one he's like in an onsen before we

description that said
michael bring on the next frozen treat
number six
cheese start from bake i don't know if
it's like my go-to
go-to but it is pretty interesting it is
the baked cheese tart they make some of
the best
cheese tarts and this is kind of their
over-the-counter product is it ice cream
or
sea salt it's a cheese tart but
what's cool is that it comes frozen but
you can also heat it up and you can eat
it
like either way it's kind of cool yeah i
guess you wouldn't consider this like
ice cream ice cream
but it is you can still eat it as like a
frozen treat
this is the sweet tart that you get you
can see that it's just like the regular
tart where you got the
bread crumb outside you have the tart
here pretty solid there's not a lot of
play
you get the cheese tart goodness right
there for that bite you get
the pie crust on the outside and you get
just like a very
cheesy tart you would probably expect if
you went to
the bake store itself it's not like
super super sweet
even though it's been frozen quite a bit
just feels like it's almost just been in
the refrigerator yeah so another summer
treat that you may have not known about
number seven museum of ice cream
strawberry soda eyes parfait from lawson
michael what's your favorite museum art
museum no
museum of ice cream strawberry
soda ice parfait super cute not
necessarily
my favorite in terms of taste but it's
just fun and unique so i definitely
wanted to share with you
this one is coming straight from uchi
cafe which means
lawson you can see all the different
colors you have
pink blue orange pink
blue orange i guess all three colors on
top
got some candy sprinkles the top is
equivalent to smarties in the states let
me see if i can get a
spoon in here that just has all of the
different flavors all in one
just looking at this you feel like the
summer vibe right
[Music]
that is rich and sugary here you have
the pink is a strawberry the blue
is the soda flavor crunchy candy pieces
of sugar
on top and then dip down below here is
that orange flavor right there you can
see it
dripping a little bit whoa this thing is
how do you say
it doesn't taste very natural it tastes
like the
you know the kids sweets back in the
days oh maybe they say
this but like what's that one that you
mix
those mixtures on the tray
i wonder why they called it museum of
ice cream i was going to say that
well it says in the bottom it says ponse
museum of ice cream
it is still good it's like perfect for
the kids because they were just like
love this
it's not like your adult taste but it's
still fun nonetheless
number eight papiko the mediterranean
sea lemon from goodiko
all right we're back with another
limited time summer menu this is all
about the limited time we did not stop
with
papiko why is it called papikono
okay
looks like it is has some saltiness to
it and it's a lemon peel
in general in japan when you think of
papiko it's kind of like
kid friendly ice cream treat i used to
hate it because i thought it was a cheap
solution parents buy
get like a full thing like okay i have
to share with my sister but it's like
it's fun it's nice you don't get your
hands
dirty you just break up the top take a
little sip of this
it's like it's more like a sip than a
bite
lemony sweet and refreshing like it's a
japanese equivalent to
the us slushie it is a limited time only
so if you want this freshness you got to
get it now and what's cool is that it
does
also have like some pulp in here see
that is a little pulp
you get little pieces of meat
[Music]
in fact i would even venture to say that
i don't think a lot of kids
would like this flavor it's more like an
adult taste number nine
super cup white peach tart from meiji so
this one is
relatively new for the summer it's one
of those i think gente menus it is a
super cup which is a very popular
brand here in japan and this one is the
peach
flavored tart you have on top the peach
flavored chunks
and then just below it the cheese cream
and then you have like the crumbly like
cookie and then
just below you have the vanilla ice
cream it's four layers pretty deep if
you ask me it's funny how the name
is sweet sweets if you couldn't read
japanese
you're like oh i really like the meiji
sweets let's open this up you can see
the frozen peach wow the vanilla so
yellow it's cheese no it's vanilla
wow the overpowering taste is peach it
is
a little bit more on like kind of on the
artificial side it does have like fruit
chunks but for some reason
you might think it's a little bit too
unnatural the bottom you do have like
this vanilla right here and it's
really really vanilla it almost looks
like egg cream
cheese kind of taste it comes from this
white part of it and then you have like
the little like cookie crumbles in here
but overall it's a good treat i'm gonna
try
yo soy
what's that face i'm not into fruit
flavor you know that right
so when i eat fruit i want a freshness
it's not bad
it's just when it comes to this like
chemically taste i'm not really into it
you're like sinking
[Music]
dude i think this sofa is getting softer
and softer
this stuff is as old as our youtube
career it's like our memory
set up and number 10 big suica bar from
lotte bringing back another limited time
only
this one is a suica
you got fireworks going off you got a
watermelon right here you have
all of this 200 percent it says a suika
ba which means like watermelon
popsicle yeah you even have suika baman
at the bottom
he looks like he is spitting some fire
yeah so this is another
cool special one that i had to introduce
with you guys here you go
the water melon slice from heaven
isn't it cute so you have the red
watermelon here and you have green
watermelon oh it even smells like
watermelon
it's funny because the seeds they look
like regular seeds but it's chocolate
this one is so japanese and they did a
pretty good job of like recreating the
watermelon taste
the bottom part is like a melon soda
taste to it in terms of the taste
it's okay it's not like the like the
most flavorful it looks like a straight
up watermelon it has these
little chocolate seeds those are
actually
chocolate bowls i can't imagine the
taste
watermelon in chocolate mix it's a very
unique taste
so i wanted to share this one in
particular it looks cute
