The frozen treat he ordered was flavored with melon, cherry and Hawaiian fruit lilikoi
U.S. President Barack Obama began 2015 by treating himself to some shave ice.
Obama, accompanied by his two daughters and a few friends, sampled a three-flavor version of the Hawaiian frozen treat while vacationing near Honolulu, Reuters reports.
The president’s visit to local vendor Island Snow, where he ordered shave ice with flavors melon, cherry and Hawaiian fruit lilikoi, was also attended by more than 40 people eager to catch a glimpse of the First Family.
“Happy New Year. Hope you’re enjoying the weather,” Obama reportedly said while shaking hands with those gathered.
