city signs of spring

I work downtown, and on a recent walk to the post office I noticed, beyond the budding trees and bright flowers, the urban signs of spring:
- parked cars drenched in pollen
- fountain flowing again at my favorite park
- people sitting on benches
- bicyclists in abundance
- cars driving by with their windows down
- a line at the ice cream shop

On the first day of spring Rita's Water Ice had a line going around the block. Granted, they were giving out free water ice on the first day...
what is this thing called 'water ice'?
it sounds a peculiar invention of the northern hemisphere.
is it like, frozen coke?
