It was three years ago when owners Carlos and Cynthia Rodriguez opened up their refreshment-focused shop, Refresqueria, in Texas City.
On Nov. 7, the couple opened their second shop in Rice Village at 5407 Morningside Drive, Houston, offering a variety of Mexican-inspired snacks, including mangonadas, fruit bowls, candy, ice cream and snow cones, along with salty snacks such as elote and cheese-covered hot Cheetos.
“This space opened up and we thought it would be really good to be here,” Carlos said. “There is a lot of foot traffic and dining options here.”
Carlos and Cynthia offer expansive menu options influenced by their experiences growing up with refresquerias, which offer street-style sweet and salty Mexican snacks.
