Helpful Hints for Homemade Snow Cones
The trick is preparing the ice with fresh blended fruit and coconut milk instead of water. That’s the best way to avoid that age old problem of snow cones with ice on top and all the flavors on the bottom. This ensures consistent flavor throughout the ice. Too, the other secret is in using your food processor to create the “snow”. The cheese grater attachment works wonders in making a ton of homemade snow cones at once. Watch how we do it in the video with this recipe.
Toppings
These homemade snow cones taste great straight up, but if you want to add a little extra something special like my friend Marlee at IJustMakeSandwiches.com recommends in the video, then you can bust out the flavored syrups and sweetened condensed milk.
