It was a little after 9p and my husband was craving ice cream. Our typical go-to is DQ but he was in the mood for THE REAL DEAL. We have driven past this Water & Ice store after his hockey games many times and he always commented on how he loved Thrifty ice cream. Well, last night was the night. We officially went and it was amazing! The two gentlemen working could not have been more friendly and surprisingly, there were quite a few people coming in and out, even at the late hour. My original intention was to just have a taste of his and not get anything of my own, BUT their real fruit smoothies had me SOLD! I got a peach, mango, banana, and strawberry smoothie and it was delicious! Naturally, I didn't finish all of it so I put it in the fridge and plan to blend it up with ice and make it come alive again!
The prices are SO right - for two scoops in a cone it was just $3 and some change. SAME with my smoothie! Finding ice cream and/or a smoothie under $6 these days is super rare. We also got a 20 lb bag of ice for a little over 2 bucks. Yes, please! Why go to DQ when we can support a fab local business?! We will 100% be back.
