Piragua

A piragua Spanish pronunciation: [piˈɾa.ɣwa] is a Puerto Rican shaved ice dessert, shaped like a cone, consisting of shaved ice and covered with fruit-flavored syrup. Piraguas are sold by vendors, known as piragüeros, from small, traditionally brightly colored pushcarts offering a variety of flavors. Besides Puerto Rico, piraguas can be found in areas of the United States with large Puerto Rican communities, such as New York and Central Florida. In Puerto Rico, the word piragua refers to a frozen treat made of shaved ice and covered with fruit-flavored syrup. Unlike the American snow cone which is round and resembles a snowball, the piragua is pointy and shaped like a pyramid. The word piragua is derived from the combination of the Spanish words pirámide and agua ('water').: 12  In Latin America, frozen treats similar to the piragua are known by many different names. A piragua vendor is known as a piragüero. Most piragüeros sell their product from a colorful wooden pushcart that carries an umbrella, instead of from a fixed stand or kiosk.
