Rita's Italian Ice - Ice. Custard. HAPPINESS!

I honestly had no idea, I mean *no idea* what Rita's Italian Ice was.  I googled it and what I read intrigued me on what the product was about.  Last week, during the soft opening - I go to try what Italian Ice was. (Left to Right) Blendini, Misto Shake, Gelati and Blueberry Ice I met Ted, the operations manager of Rita's Italian Ice - Philippines and Jamie - Rita's Italian Ice manager for franchise.  I am one who likes to ask questions - so, yes - I berated them both - especially Ted - and he was impressive!  He had an answer for every question that I threw at him.  He knew his product well.  Thank you Ted and Jamie for indulging me!  Haha.. So, what is Italian Ice?  Italian is a frozen dessert made with fruit juices and flavorings.  Imagine a snowcone - but instead of putting concentrates on shaved ice, - the ice and concentrate is mixed together via the same process of ice cream, sans the *cream*.  It comes out smoother ...
