Favorite Snow Cone Flavor
 

So, it is hot in Austin and the only thing that sounds really good at the moment is a snow cone. It made me wonder what some of the favorite flavors are.

At the stand where I go, they have a kazillion flavors and one is called Wedding Cake. It tastes like a rich vanilla and goes well mixed with the Coca Cola flavor.

What is yours?
Feel free to add a favorite snow cone memory as well.

The St. Louis Zoo snow cones rocked when I was a kid. Watching the seals 'bark' and play and eating my grape or lime snow cone was amazing.

I'm a sorbet/Italian ice kind of guy.
Cherry, of course.

Grape for the win.


All the snow cones at the Marion County Fair come from ice sold by Team 829. We are the exclusive vendor for all the ice sold at the fair. Come by when you are at IRI, have a cone and say hello.

I would love to stop by the fair and have a snow cone. How would I get directions and how far is it from the IRI venue?

Blue, for me.




And no, blue is not a color in this case. Blue is an actual flavor when it comes to snow cones, slushees, ice pops, etc. :)

As for snow cone memories, snow cones and related snow treats always remind me of my town's little league baseball park. The field had great facilities. I would often work the concession stand or the scoreboard there when I wasn't playing. That field and snow cones just seemed to mesh together. They had these ice cream hot dogs there, too. The bun is cake, the ketchup is chocolate syrup, and the hot dog is, of course, ice cream. Ahh, summer...

I agree :) Blue it is!

Florida Tech has a fountain drink that tastes just like a blue ice pop. It's addicting.

It's about 10 miles south of IRI

It starts the day before IRI.

Snow cones are nice, especially with all this heat, it's like 80 degrees!!! Although, I don't like it when all of the flavorings go down to the bottom of the paper cup and drip, it stains shirts...:eek:

My favorite flavor is definitely lemon ice.

Re: Favorite Snow Cone Flavor
 

I'm fond of blue raspberry, personally.

Re: Favorite Snow Cone Flavor
 

My favorite flavor is green. Lime, theoretically, but who knows what it really is?

Re: Favorite Snow Cone Flavor
 

A squirt of each for me. ;) I always do get weird looks when I say that, I don't know why... :p
