Shaved ice.

Shaved ice is a common ice drink in summer. Shave ice cubes into snowflakes, top with condensed milk, syrup, and add various fruits or other ingredients to make a high-end cold drink. It tastes delicate, melts in the mouth, contains not much sugar, and has an excellent cooling effect. You won’t feel full after eating.

Shaved ice can basically be divided into three categories: sanded ice, crushed ice and shaved ice. You must choose ingredients that are consistent with the ice to be a perfect ice product, because this will not make the ice faster than the ingredients. When the ground disappears and the taste and taste cannot "fuse" with each other, and the function of the ice itself is lost, this is the so-called "unification".

Extended information

Shaved ice has a long history in China. Chinese people have a long tradition of eating iced food. Due to the long history of the ice storage industry, in the Tang and Song Dynasties, especially in the Song Dynasty, royal and private ice storage activities were very large-scale. In summer, a large amount of ice and snow could be taken out of the ice cellars for use.

There are two main ways for people in the Tang and Song Dynasties to directly drink ice and snow. One is cold water made from ice and snow, that is, cold drinks, and the other is ice that is broken into small pieces or unmelted snow, which is ice. After eating it, it is equivalent to today's shaved ice. In the Song Dynasty, cold drinks made of ice and snow were quite common and not a rarity at all, at least in the capital.
