Well I finally made it to Sweet Republic. Considering I was driving from Chandler, I had to be sure to get my passport and other assorted government papers in order to make the trip.
I really wanted something traditional, so I went with some kind of vanilla caramel chocolate kind of ice cream. It was delicious, even though I don't remember the name. What I do remember is sampling the avocado jalapeno ice cream. That was a trip. I figured while I was all the way up there I might as well try something out of the ordinary. The green confection was creamy and smooth with a sharp kick in the butt. I'm not sure I could take down a whole serving, but then again I've been thinking about that unexpected flavor for a while.
Time to get out the passport again.
