Friday, March 20 will mark a “sweet” date for Italian Ice lovers – and those looking for a free dose of happiness in today’s troubled economy! Rita’s Franchise Company, the nation’s largest Italian Ice franchise, will hold its 17th Ice giveaway. A time-honored tradition, more than one million Rita’s guests are expected to “scoop up” the offer and feed their spring fever.

A Philadelphia-born springtime tradition, the annual Rita’s giveaway is held from noon to 10 p.m. at more than 500 Rita’s locations in 17 states. Guests who visit their neighborhood Rita’s will receive one free, regular-sized, 10 oz. cup of Italian Ice to commemorate the beginning of spring.

In addition to serving more than a million guests on March 20, Rita’s will also launch its new Mystery Flavor Italian Ice. After tasting this new, secret-flavored Italian Ice, guests will have the opportunity to submit their suggested name for the Mystery Flavor and vote for their favorite name submission at Rita's Italian Franchise. The winner of the Mystery Ice Flavor Naming Contest will receive FREE Rita’s Italian Ice for one year. The contest begins on March 20 and commences on April 17, with the winner being announced on April 27 through the company’s website.

In addition to Mystery Flavor Italian Ice, Rita’s fans can also enjoy 30 more sweet and refreshing Italian Ice flavors, all made fresh daily at each location.
