If you are from Long Island, you know Ralph's Famous Italian Ices is an iconic and well-known spot to hit up in the summer and during the warmer seasons to grab a sweet treat that is cold, refreshing, and delicious. They have multiple locations all over the island, however I stopped at their Franklin Square one. Ralph's is so big that besides Long Island, they also have shops in New Jersey, Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island, Westchester County, and even one in Connecticut.
When I went to Ralph's, I got their 'Blue Hawaii Water Ice.' I wanted something that was simple yet tasty and would hit the spot, and this did that for me. This was so good and tasted nostalgic for me. It brought me right back to my childhood when I would get an Italian Ice from the snack stand after every game I played summer soccer yearly. It reminded me of the sweet flavors as well as the warm weather, old times, and how summer is here! The great thing about these water ices is that they are also fat-free and cholesterol-free, so there is no guilt here!
Besides the water ices, customers can order anything from the sherbet, their Twisters, the no sugar ices, ice cream, smoothies, milkshakes, their Icebergs (smoothies topped with ice cream), and so much more. Pickup and delivery are offered through delivery service apps. To keep up with all things Ralph's, make sure you follow them on Facebook, Instagram, and X for more. Hit up a Ralph's location if you can because this is the place to be on a nice, hot summer night!
