You haven’t tried ice cream until you’ve tried Sweet Republic. Named Top 10 Ice Cream by Bon Appetit. Sweet Republic uses all-natural ingredients and they do a great job exploring different ingredients. The shop is located at 92nd St and Shea Blvd in Scottsdale. If you haven’t already checked it out, now it’s easier to do so because their products are sold in Whole Foods (this was just announced the other day). A few of the flavors I’ve seen: Real Mint, Beets, Pumpkin Spice, Cheese Course Duo, Espresso (from a local roaster) and a dozen others. They serve ice cream as well sorbet and yogurt. Not only that, but they’re constantly introducing new flavors to mark the seasons, or just for fun. I really dig that approach. Sweet Republic 9160 E.
