Mr Tino’s Ice Cream

If you can find it, it’s a neat place for a cold treat. There was a bit of a language barrier when I went (I don’t speak Spanish), but the lady behind the counter was super friendly and accomodating, and gave very generous samples. Mango ice cream is good! Their chocolate is very rich and not as sweet as you’d expect, a plus in my book because more of the chocolately yumminess came through. Only reason I don’t give it 5 stars is that the little indoor shopping arcade is not exactly sparkling clean, but that’s just my OCD showing through no doubt, so feel free to tack on an extra star. Will definitely go again!

Aguas Frescas. If you have not had these authentic, refreshing Mexican drinks, this is a great place to try them. These beverages are ladled out of large metal tubs with flavors such as Horchata, a rice and cinnamon drink, to fresh fruits such as melon and strawberry, to the exotics such as Tamarindo. All are made fresh on location. The ice cream is also freshly made and terrific. Finding the shop is a bit of an adventure as well, as there is no exterior signage. You walk through the front door of a strip center and past a row of independent hispanic shops to a makeshift «food court.» The owner is super friendly, helpful, and very generous with samples of Aguas Frescas as well as ice cream. Try all the flavors, you’ll find one you’ll love!

So fressssssh! I can’t believe there’s a gem like this here!
It is pretty hard to find, but inside the food court of this mini-​hispanic strip mall, I think it is called «Roswell Latin Plaza», there is a fantastic ice cream shop that sell authentic mexican-​style ice cream. Also, if you never had aqua frescas before, you have to try their nice creamy-​style drink!
All their ice cream is made fresh and with bits of fruits. And if ice cream isn’t your thing, they also have homemade fruit bars and aqua fresca! There may be a language barrier, but just ask for Mr. Tino. He speaks english and is very passionate about his ice creams!
There are a ton of flavors to choose from. It’s hard to pick which flavor, but at least they let you taste before you buy!
I tried their strawberries & cream and cantaloupe aqua fresca. Their aqua fresca had a punch of creamy deliciousness. Strawberry ice cream was my favorite though. It reminded of the vanilla strawberry ice cream cups I had when I was a kid. Silky vanilla ice cream with swirls of strawberry chunks and jam. Yummy!
They had a whole case of fresh fruit bars, too! Sooooo many flavors! I totally wanted one, but I only had room for ice cream. In the next case, they had all of their aqua fresca. So colorful! And they cut the fruit to order rather than pre-​cutting it.
Love this place! Great for dessert after your meal or anytime of the day! The only negative is how hard it is to find, but if you want authentic home-​made style ice cream, it is worth finding this place out.
