Bahama Bucks is a popular tropical-themed dessert chain that has been serving delicious shaved ice treats for over 30 years.
The company was founded in 1990 in Lubbock, Texas, by Blake Buchanan, who was looking for a way to beat the Texas heat. What started as a small venture has now grown into a franchise with over 100 locations across the United States.
Bahama Bucks is famous for its shaved ice. The treats are made by shaving a block of ice into small, fluffy pieces that are then topped with a variety of flavored syrups.
Unlike some competitors, Bahama Bucks shaves the ice so finely that it resembles soft, fluffy snow.
The company offers over 100 different flavors, including classics like cherry and grape, as well as unique flavors like cucumber, tamarindo and gummy bears! We’ll dig into all these flavors a bit later in the article.
In addition to its shaved ice, the Bahama Buck’s menu also offers a range of other treats, including smoothies, sodas, and even some frozen coffee drinks. We’ll also review these in detail in this article.
