Huckabuck

A huckabuck is a homemade frozen dessert enjoyed by children in Louisiana, particularly New Orleans. It consists of a paper cup that is filled with some sort of sweet liquid like Kool-Aid, and frozen. Children buy them on their way home from school for a dime, or sometimes a quarter; other things are generally sold with them: pickles or candy are favored. They are still served to this day at the New Orleans Jazz Festival and in many neighborhoods around central and southern Louisiana.
