We stopped in to try the local delicacy and really enjoyed it. The mixing of the ice cream with the shaved ice was very interesting.
From (

In Hawaii, "shave ice" is similar to snow cones, and is sold in cone-shaped paper cups. "Rainbow," a popular flavor, consists of three different colors of syrup chosen usually for their color rather than their taste compatibility. The ice is often shaved more finely than with other snow cones so that the syrup colors are retained longer, providing for a better presentation. Commonly, a scoop of vanilla ice cream or sweetened azuki beans is first added to the bottom of the cup, and is capped with condensed milk.
