How To Make Snow Cones

Snow cones: a classic frozen summer dessert Snow Cone
Maureen C. Petrosky•

Snow cones are associated with kids, ice cream trucks and summer. But this simple frozen treat gets an adult makeover with flavors from coffee to limoncello. Create a dessert bar loaded with flavored syrups, coffees and liquors and let your guests make their own frozen dessert.

Some of our favorite adult drizzles: Limoncello, Absinthe, Grand Marnier, Espresso, Frangelico and Pedro Ximenez Sherry.
