The Signature

Home of San Antonio's Mangonada

Sweet mango Italian ice swirled with chamoy, a squeeze of lime and a tamarind straw — juicy, spicy, unmistakably San Antonio. We're the originators of the city's favorite mangonada, and we've been perfecting it since day one.

Order it on the menu as Mango Loco, chamoy-style. Once you taste it, you'll understand the line out front.

Our Story

A fruit stand with a big idea — since 2001.

Las Nieves Fruit Cups & More started in 2001 as a simple fruit stand with a big idea — and grew into a San Antonio tradition. Owned and run by brothers Carlos & Jorge Flores, we were the first to bring Italian ice and raspas to San Antonio, and the city fell in love.

More than twenty years later we've grown to three stand-alone stands plus food trucks all over the city — but what makes us special hasn't changed. We source fruit directly from growers, make everything fresh to order with unlimited San Antonio Extras, and treat every customer like family.

The Las Nieves Bigfoot/Yeti patio mascot

👣 Beware Bigfoot.
Las Nieves means "the snows" — so naturally a friendly Yeti guards our patio. Come find him (and snap a photo).
