    I discovered Kona Coffee Roasters innocently enough. Drawn in by a sign advertising the Waikiki Matcha (pineapple puree, milk, coconut cream, matcha), I knew I had to pop in to escape the heat for a bit. Well, it turned out to be one of the most memorable matcha drinks I’ve had in NYC, I was really impressed by the balanced concoction.
