Location location location! I used to man the snack shack at my kids swim meets (they last like 6hrs) and snow cones were top seller. Can’t get cheaper ingredients than ice and syrup (yah you need a machine) and there is an element of choice (flavor) and artistry (lemon and lime syrup looks divine). Sure gin too why not

Amazing how the simplest businesses can earn a good income. Pretty sure the lemonade stand guy does something else during off season

Definitely! Hot chocolate maybe? 🤔 I think there’s definitely a lot more overheads than I’m presuming and for it to be a big engine you need long hours (8-10h shift) and a first class location. Permits could be everything.
