Enjoying your summer on Hilton Head Island?
Not in the mood for ice cream but still wanting something cold?
The temperatures are high and the humidity is ever-present. This means there is no excuse necessary not to seek out a fun, refreshing, frozen treat while on the island.
Frozen treats such as shaved ice, snow cones or popsicles are summer delights that can get overlooked compared to their traditional, creamy, dairy counterparts, but you don’t want to sleep on these delicious dessert options.
Here are four locations on Hilton Head Island for your next summer treat.
Sno Cones by Chris
Sno Cones by Chris is a snow cone establishment on Hilton Head that is open every day of the week. The snow cone shop offers more than 30 flavors to pick from and nearly 10 different dye-free options as well. Any flavor on the menu can also be made on-demand into a sugar-free option for customers after an allotted 10 minute window for the new flavor to be specially made. If guests wish, each snow cone is completed with a marshmallow cream (condensed milk) topping. None of the syrup is pre-made, and all are made in-house from scratch and free of high fructose corn syrup, dairy or nut allergens. Sno Cones by Chris can be found mid-island by Palmetto Bay Marina at 114 Helmsman Way, Hilton Head Island, SC 29928.
