Mochilato (and the greater subject of shaved ice)

I've always been fond of shaved ice and there's a variety of types you can get: the korean kind, the taiwanese kind, and now this strange japanese hybrid kind.  Mochilato combines shaved ice with gelato, red bean, fruit, mochi, and condensed milk.  I'm not sure how I feel about the gelato.  I'm just not used to it, I think.  My personal preference is just plain fruit with condensed milk, hold the red bean, please.

Aside:  Yesterday, I bought an ice shaver and put these ingredients in:
condensed milk
strawberries
mangos
kiwi
pineapple
a handful of honey nut crunch cereal
yogurt covered raisins
a couple tablespoons of cream mixed with sugar
mandarin oranges
