How much syrup do I need to use for a serving of shaved ice or snow cones?
The amount of syrup used per serving will vary depending on the size of the serving, the texture of the ice, and the setting of the ice shaver blade. Coarser ice will take less syrup than fluffy ice. Below is a chart of the average amount of syrup used per container of shaved ice. Please remember that this will vary. For Snow Cones, you will usually use much less syrup. For example, a 6 ounce ounce snow cone will only take around 1.5 ounces.
