Piragua (food)
A Piragua 〔(Dictionary ), Retrieved June 19, 2008〕 is a Puerto Rican shaved ice dessert, shaped like a pyramid, consisting of shaved ice and covered with fruit flavored syrup. Piraguas are sold by vendors, known as piragüeros, in small colorful pushcarts. Piragüas are not only sold in Puerto Rico; they can be found in the United States mainland in areas such as New York, where there is a large Puerto Rican community.
==Definition==
In most Spanish-speaking countries, the word ''piragua'' (pi·ra·gua) means pirogue, a small, flat-bottomed boat.〔() ''Setting sail'', Retrieved June 19, 2008〕 In Puerto Rico the word ''piragua'' refers to a frozen treat made of shaved ice and covered with fruit flavored syrup. Unlike the American snow cone which is round and resembles a snowball, the piragua is pointy and shaped like a pyramid. The word ''piragua'' is derived from the combination of the Spanish words "pirámide" (pyramid) and "agua" (water).〔"Luisito and the Piragua", Page 12, Author: Toro, Leonor, Publisher: New Haven Migratory Children's Program, Hamden-New Haven Cooperative Education Center; ERIC #: ED209026; Retrieved July 14, 2008〕 In Latin America, frozen treats similar to the piragua are known by many different names.〔(Puerto Rico Herald )〕
