Del's Frozen Lemonade · Providence
A semi-frozen slushie of fresh-squeezed lemons, sugar and water, churned to a granular, snow-like texture rather than a smoothie. The Rhode Island summer constant since 1948.
Del's was founded in 1948 by Angelo DeLucia in Cranston, who imported his grandfather's Italian neapolitan recipe. The grainy texture, somewhere between Italian granita and American slushie, is the signature. Del's now operates over 40 carts and trucks across Rhode Island, with the Federal Hill cart and the Wayland Square truck the canonical Providence pours.
