If you have spent any time on TikTok searching for things to do in Tenerife, you have almost certainly seen Chill Box. A brightly coloured cup, a frozen slushy cocktail, someone doing a dramatic first sip to camera, and a string of comments saying “going here next week.” The videos are everywhere, and unlike most things that go viral in the travel space, the reality at Chill Box actually lives up to the hype. The drinks are genuinely good, the prices are fair, the staff are brilliant, and you get to keep the cup. It is one of those places that turns a ten-minute stop into a forty-minute sit-down because nobody wants to leave.
This guide covers everything you need to know: what is on the menu, how much it costs, how the keep cup deal works, and where to find both locations across the south.

What is Chill Box?
Chill Box is a drinks bar in south Tenerife that has built an enormous following on TikTok and social media by doing one thing exceptionally well: making frozen slushy cocktails and gourmet iced coffees that look as good as they taste. There is no food menu, no full bar service, and no attempt to be anything other than exactly what it is. It is a specialist drinks operation with two locations in the south, a loyal following of visitors who come back every single holiday, and a tagline that sums it up perfectly: “Probably the best ice-cream coffees and ice cocktails in Tenerife.”
It has been featured across TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Facebook travel groups for south Tenerife consistently enough that most people visiting the area have at least heard of it before they arrive. The combination of a genuinely great product, a fun atmosphere, and a keep cup that doubles as a holiday souvenir has turned what could have been a one-visit novelty into a place that people put on their list every time they come back to the island.
Chill Box currently has two locations in the south: one in Playa de las Américas and one in Costa Adeje. Both offer the same menu and the same experience. The Las Américas location is the original and the one with the longest-running TikTok presence.
The Frozen Slush Cocktails
The slushies are the star of the show and the reason most people visit for the first time. They are served frozen, properly cold, and already contain alcohol as standard. The alcohol is built in, and then you also get a small bottle of spirit on the side, typically a miniature of Absolut Vodka or similar, which you can add to your drink or save for later.
If you want to upgrade the spirit to a premium option, that costs approximately €2 to €3 extra on top of the standard price. The standard option is entirely adequate if you just want the drink to taste good, which it does.
| Flavour | What to Expect | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Blue Passion | Vivid blue, tropical flavours | The classic TikTok order |
| Icy Strawberry Delight | Natural strawberry, easy to drink | Most consistently praised flavour |
| Blue Velvet Freeze | Blue, slightly different profile from Blue Passion | Return visitors wanting variety |
| Chill Wave | Refreshing, tropical-forward | Hot afternoons |
| Blue Passion Chilliwave | Blend of Blue Passion and Chill Wave | Can’t choose between the two |
Approximately €8.90 for a standard slushy cocktail including alcohol. Spirit upgrade approximately €2 to €3 extra. Prices subject to change. Check directly on the day.
Not sure what to order? Ask the staff. Reviews consistently praise the Chill Box team for running through the whole menu and making the choice easy based on what you normally like.
The Iced Coffees
The iced coffees at Chill Box have developed their own following entirely separately from the slushies, and several visitors who came originally for the frozen cocktails have become more devoted to the coffee menu on subsequent visits. The difference between a Chill Box iced coffee and a standard hotel iced coffee is significant enough that it is worth knowing about even if you are not particularly a coffee drinker.
| Coffee | Flavour Profile | Alcoholic? |
|---|---|---|
| Kinder Bueno | Creamy, chocolatey, pieces blended through | No |
| Biscoff | Caramel-spice, sweet and distinctive | No |
| Salted Caramel | Classic iced latte with caramel balance | No |
All iced coffees are non-alcoholic, making them the perfect option for designated drivers, children, or anyone who wants something cold and indulgent without the alcohol. Several regulars rate the Kinder Bueno iced coffee as even better than the slushies.
The Keep Cup and the 10% Deal
This is the detail that makes Chill Box genuinely stand out from every other drinks bar in the south of Tenerife. Every drink is served in a branded Chill Box cup that you keep. Not a disposable plastic cup. An actual reusable branded cup that becomes a holiday souvenir and a conversation starter when you get home.
The deal extends further: if you bring your cup back on a return visit, you get 10% off your next drink. This is the kind of loyalty incentive that sounds small in isolation but becomes genuinely meaningful for visitors who go back two or three times during a week’s holiday, or for the growing number of people who come back to Tenerife year after year and treat a Chill Box visit as a holiday ritual.
Every drink comes in a branded reusable Chill Box cup. Yours to keep. Bring it back on any future visit and get 10% off your next drink. Works on return visits the same holiday and on future trips to Tenerife.
The Atmosphere and the TikTok Factor
Chill Box is bright, colourful, and designed for the visual era of social media without feeling cynical about it. The neon lighting, the vivid drink colours, and the outdoor seating that catches the afternoon sun all create an environment where photographing your drink is the natural thing to do. The staff lean into this. They present the drinks well, they are happy to wait while you get your shot, and they are consistently described across reviews as genuinely warm and welcoming.
The TikTok content from Chill Box is a reasonably accurate representation of what you actually get, which is rarer than it sounds. The drinks look like the videos. The atmosphere feels like the atmosphere in the videos. The staff are as friendly as they appear.
The vivid colours of the slushies photograph brilliantly in natural afternoon light. Get there between 2pm and 5pm for the best combination of light, temperature, and a drink that deserves to be documented.
Who is Chill Box For?
Almost everyone, which is part of why it works. The alcoholic slushies are aimed squarely at adults who want something fun and cold with their afternoon. The iced coffees suit anyone who wants a quality cold drink without alcohol. The non-alcoholic slushy options mean children are catered for.
| Who | What to Order |
|---|---|
| Adults who drink | Frozen slushy cocktail, Blue Passion or Icy Strawberry Delight |
| Non-drinkers | Kinder Bueno or Biscoff iced coffee |
| Children | Non-alcoholic slushy options |
| Can’t decide | Ask the staff. Consistently praised for their recommendations |

The menu evolves and seasonal or limited flavours appear regularly. A quick check of @chillboxtenerife before you visit tells you what is currently available so you are not deliberating at the counter over flavours that have changed since you last read a review.
