is New Orleans’s only shop dedicated to Italian ice — a bold move in the land of sno-balls. But if you’ve ever sucked your sno-ball dry and been left with bland, flavorless ice, or found them just a bit too sweet, Trevail Thomas has the treat for you. Thomas opened Sunset Slush at its current location in 2021 . Thomas fell in love with the consistency and softness of Italian ice, finding it flavorful but not overly sweet or sugared — she says it’s like if ice cream and sno-balls had a baby.
Sunset Slush offers 31 flavors , all of which can be combined, or “swirled,” making for infinite flavor combinations. Thomas’s favorite is the piña colada, and says her top-seller is the Sunset NOLA, a strawberry-mango combo. Other local favorites include the strawberry shortcake and wedding cake, a combo of almond and cupcake. There’s the option to top your ice with sweet or sour gummy candy; caramel or chocolate syrups, and of course, condensed milk.
