Shaved ice

Ingredients you will need:

Ice cubes (to easy) 

With the container empty, turn your Vitamix on and work it up to high

Turn the clear top on your lid a quarter turn and pull it out and turn it upside down and put it back over the whole 

Grab a couple of cups of ice or more if you want and one by one drop them through the top.  Give each cube a second before loading the next. 

Here's the trick. The first couple of cubes are a little bouncy in the container. It's nice to have that clear upside down plug to cover the hole immediately after you drop the cube of ice down.  If its bouncy on you, and I'm sure it will be, that upside down plug does the trick. 

After you've dropped all if your ice cubes through one by one, turn off the machine and scoop your shaved ice out with a wooden spoon into some cups to serve

In a future post Ill give you some flavoring/topping ideas for your snow cones. 

Happy summer :)
