Sometimes my cravings are my worst enemy... But today, they helped me find a wonderful gem! Sitting y the pool trying to handle this insane Vegas heat, I turned to my best friend and said "Italian ice.... I need it. Now." So instantly she turned to yelp and we decided to give this place a try.
Don't be deceived when you first pull up. Google maps will take you to a gas station... Instead of yelling at your phone, just accept it because your phone is correct. This place is a little truck type thing on the side of the gas station.
After getting un-confused by the location I was excited to finally satisfy my craving. I thought it was awesome that they have so many flavors!! I am quite an indecisive person, but I still appreciated the multitude of options. I decided to get three flavors: blue raspberry, guava, and mango. Each flavor was as delicious as the next! And it looked pretty too. Although this place calls itself "purple penguin snow cones" it is definitely the closest I've had to a legitimate Italian ice in quite a while.
Needless to say, I'll be going back and testing out all the other flavors on their extensive list! I'm pretty sure purple penguins are my new favorite animal!
