In honor of the summer, I say we all challenge ourselves to try as many flavors of snow cones and/or shaved ice as possible.
My husband and I have been eating snow cones like crazy during the past few days of heat wave, so I'll start. So far I've eaten:
* daiquiri
* tiger's blood
* Hawaiian
* sour cherry
I think I liked the daiquiri best so far. Anyone else?

There is a little business in my area called Sno Biz that sells shaved ice. They have flavors that I would never even think to put on ice but they are good. My favorite is strawberry and cream.

The only place I can get it around here is at fairs or the boardwalk. The fairs are usually limited to lemon, cherry, and blue. The boardwalk is for tourists until Labor Day. We have lots of Italian Ice places here.
ETA: This is my favorite. It just happens to be the turnaround point on my bicycle route along the oceanfront. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

They sell snow cones at my work to raise money for the annual company picnic. So far I've had blue raspberry and strawberry.

While at the San Diego Zoo on Wednesday, I thought of this thread and we got Snow Cones. My friend and I had Cherry (I know...boring, but it's my favorite) and her little boys had Bubblegum flavor!

OOh, snow cones!! My son and I used to get these all the time, but I can't find a stand anywhere nearby. I can try to crush some ice in the blender, but I don't have any cool flavors. Guess I'll just have to search out a stand somewhere.

We found two more stands over the weekend, but didn't try them. I think some supermarkets sell snow cone syrup for making them at home.
I had a pineapple snow cone on Saturday and it was delicious! I might have to get that flavor again...

I went to Goodwill over the weekend and found a snow cone maker for $2! It works perfectly and just needed a little cleaning up. I went to Wal-Mart and got a couple of bottles of the syrup (cherry and tangerine) and saw the identical machine there for about $25, so I am feeling pleased about finding such a bargain. I took the machine and syrups to a friend's for a cookout Saturday, and people seemed to enjoy the snow cones, especially since the day was rather warm.

Last night I ventured out of my "comfort zone" and tried a new flavor. Lemon Ice Box Pie...it had a cream flavoring along with the lemon. I wasnt impressed, the cream had little to no flavor, and the lemon wasnt very lemony. But now I know....

Wow, I never knew there were so many flavors of snow cones! I need to look around more! I have one of those small snow cone makers you get from Wal-Mart but the only flavors I've found are your average cherry, strawberry, lime, blue raspberry etc. I did find a peach one though and it is my favorite so far!
