There is just something about shaved ice and summer that go hand and hand. Eating this cool treat always triggers such fun memories for me, so when school was officially out for summer I tool the boys out to the park for a fun impromptu play time. While we were walking over, we noticed a big yellow shaved ice truck.

One of my most favorite things about summertime is shaved ice. It’s so refreshing, but it’s usually got artificial colors and flavors so we don’t get it too often. Enter Lather and Shave Las Vegas … Located at the Aliante Dinosaur Park (2627 Nature Park Dr.) they are a shaved ice and soda food truck made with all-natural, no dye, concentrates or food coloring.
The boys were eager to test out whether or not this flavored goodness could taste as yummy as it’s counterpart, so after a good hour or more of running around the park we headed back over to the truck. Since it was our first time trying them, I let everyone order their own.
D picked strawberry topped with fresh strawberries, K had blueberry topped with a lime, and I went for the pineapple also topped with fresh strawberries.

They were trying to sell me on the lather part – being that it’s fresh handmade whip cream, but I think we will save that for next time. Honestly with as many choices as they had – I am sure we will be visiting them again all summer long.
Lather and Shave las vegas was delicious, and the perfect way to end our perfect fun free Friday!
