Morrone's Water Ice

A water ice and pretzel combo craving reminds us of the chicken or egg dilemma. We don’t know if wanting water ice is a gateway to the need for a pretzel, or if it's the other way around. We just know that you usually won’t find people eating one without the other. At West Philly’s Morrone’s you can not only get housemade water ice with things like fresh apple bits in the sour apple scoops but also four types of warm pretzels. And whether you go with one drenched in melty cheese or baked with pepperoni, they’ll go great with any of the 18 daily types of water ice. When we’re here we go for the strawberry lemonade. It’s the perfect mix of sweet and sour, and we couldn’t care less that it turns our tongues and lips turn bright pink.
