Mario's Italian Lemonade Critics' Pick

Mario's Italian Lemonade
41.869719 -87.653762 1068 W Taylor St (between Carpenter and Aberdeen Sts) University Village/UIC, Chicago
Subway: Blue to UIC/Halsted
11am–midnight (open May–Sept)
Average cup: $3
This no-frills seasonal stand has been churning out Italian lemonade since 1954. Though it serves novelties such as snowballs and nuts, you’re really there for the namesake goods: delicately shaved ice with pieces of lemon rinds and flecks of zest, naturally flavored and not too tart or overly sweet. Flavors get fancy—like chocolate or piña colada—but our recommendation is to stick to the fruits (cantaloupe, for example, comes with melon chunks).
