Voting Home / John's Water Ice
Nominated for: BEST Water Ice
Established in 1945
John Cardullo, the original John of John's, came from Sicily 80-90 years ago. He stared a business that was a lot of businesses. The ice business year round, the oil business in winter and in the summer the water ice business. He put up a stand by the steps of his oil company, now John Cardullo & Sons. Making all natural water ice with his bare hands was one more way to make a living to John Cardullo.
In 1953 or '54, Cardullo himself built what has become a landmark in South Philadelphia, the first building in all of Philadelphia built for water ice.
Just as John Cardullo hand cranked his water ice over 65 years ago; Anthony Cardullo, 3rd generation Owner uses only fresh fruit he personally selects and squeezes by hand, filtered water and sugar. No preservatives, no additives.
Secret recipe sets John's apart; is it tangible, or is it The Family Business - love, dedication, passion & pride.
Four Flavors, Lemon, Cherry, Chocolate & Pineapple never tasted so good.
Their small is just the perfect amount of water ice to cool you off on a hot summer day. This is AUTHENTIC water ice, not overly sugary and gross like Ritas.
