Best Rita’s Ice Flavors

With over 80 daily rotating flavors, it can be hard to choose which one to try from Rita’s menu. All of their flavors and menu items are made fresh daily on-site so you know that the quality is definitely top notch. So whether it’s your first time at Rita’s Ice or you just want to try something new, here are the best flavors you need to try.

Mango Italian Ice

Mango

This is quite possibly the best dessert Rita’s Italian Ice has to offer. It’s everything you want in a fruity flavor. It’s tropical, it’s citrusy, and perfectly captures that mango taste without being too sweet or sour. Their Mango flavor is so good that they actually have a whole line of other flavors based on mango like Mango Orange, Mango Peach, or even Mango Strawberry. It’s the most popular flavor at Rita’s Ice and for very good reason; it actually works well on any of their offerings.

Black Cherry Ritas Ice

Black Cherry

The Cherry flavor over at Rita’s Ice is already pretty great on its own. But the Black Cherry is even better. It has everything you love about the regular cherry flavor but is more robust and actually sweeter. It’s a well-balanced flavor that sets itself apart with a unique taste that you just can’t get enough of.
