Rita's Italian Ice's is a popular chain of frozen treat shops founded in Pennsylvania, USA, known for their Italian ice and custard. Its menu primarily consists of Italian ice, a sweetened frozen dessert made with fruit (similar to sorbet), and frozen custard, a type of ice cream that is denser and creamier due to the addition of egg yolks in the recipe. These are served separately or combined in various ways. They also offer other items like gelati (a layering of Italian ice and custard), blendinis (a mix of Italian ice, custard, and toppings), milkshakes, sundaes, and more.

      Their Italian ice, which is made fresh daily and available in various flavors, is especially popular. The flavors can range from traditional options like cherry and lemon to more unique offerings like Swedish Fish or cotton candy. With summer around the corner, the Staten Island Ferry Terminal shop is looking to attract new and old customers, whether that be tourists or local commuters.
