Here in New York, it's been so hot these past few weeks you can barely hop on your bike without sweating right through your spandex! Don't you wish there was a way for the discerning foodie to cool off?
Sure, you could go find yourself a snow cone... that is, if you'd like to brave throngs of smelly, pudgy, barefoot children, only to be handed a
syrupy mess! But luckily for us, the artisans of America have taken another lowbrow treat from declasse to gourmet. As the Times says: "This is shaved ice, and it is a game-changer."
So say goodbye to artificial cherry flavoring, and treat yourself some locally sourced watermelon-basil instead! I don't know about you, but I'm going to head straight from my Ashtanga Yoga class this afternoon to try one of these delightful, cheeky takes on a summertime classic. Snoballs, Kakigori, Raspados... just don't call them Snow Cones anymore. Why? Because:
They Made It Fancy!!!
