A RECIPE FOR SNOW CONES FROM 1610!

While this recipe has nothing to do with cultural events, it is appropriate for the snowy weather conditions we are experiencing here. Perhaps President Obama, a big fan of something they call “shave ice” in Hawaii, would find it tasty! Not his daughters, though, for it contains alcohol (sack)!

On this wintry day, enjoy a snow recipe from
Folger Shakespeare Library's collection.
