Attention CA Residents:

Customer questions about this product

Do I need to keep this product refrigerated? Or refrigerate after opening?

No, this product does not require refrigeration.

How can I get the best results with this water ice base?

For the best results, shake water ice bases well before use to ensure contents are properly mixed before serving.

What is the difference between an Italian ice, a slushy, and a snow cone?

An Italian ice, also known as a water ice, is very smooth and its flavoring is mixed into the ice before or during freezing. A slushy, also known as an Icee or granita, typically comes in icy liquid form, and the flavor is added before the freezing process.

For a crunchier product, snow cones use larger, shaved ice, that is generally flavored at the point of sale.

Flavor:
Cherry

This is the real deal official cherry ?? water ice syrup, I used to have a water ice truck pull up on the corner after school, an old converted bread truck. They only had lemon and cherry back in the early 80s. On that truck anyway. I look forward to ordering other flavors as the cherry is a far superior and distinctive flavor. I’m educating my Vermont community! I used the Stabaleez as well. Only mixing 1 quart batches. But they are perfect. Lemon juice in place of citric acid seems to work great. And for added excitement, chop up bits of Marashino cherries to add to the mix at the end.

It tastes good! Add a little less sugar to your batch to start because it may be too sweet.

Flavor:
Lemon

This lemon base is a classic Italian ice flavor. It is a little more tart than most of the other flavors. You might want to take into consideration adding a little more sugar if you don’t like tart flavor.
