How do you beat the heat over the summer? Well, here are my top five refreshing snacks, ice cream, popsicles, milkshakes, gelato and smoothies. Read on to find out the best brands, health benefits, and my reasoning.
Ice Cream is my top pick for cooling off during the summer. It is refreshing and has a selection of flavors. July is also national ice cream month making it perfect to enjoy over the summer months. Ice cream also contains nutrients that are good for supporting your immune system. I like the Tillamook brand but I will eat almost any kind. Lots of favorites for ice cream according to students are Jiffy Treat, Culvers, Dairy Queen and Ben & Jerrys.
Popsicle is my second pick for cooling off during the summer. You can even make them at home, with the flavors of your choice. It helps cool you down and keep you hydrated in the hot summer months. My favorite popsicle brand is Outshine, it has lots of delicious, fruity flavors. There are many favorites for popsicles including Ice Pops, Outshine, Otter Pops, Scribblers, and Walmart is a great place to get popsicles.
Gelato is the perfect refreshing snack for summertime. It is an airy snack with plenty of flavors to choose from. Gelato also has lots of calcium helping with bone health. My favorite brand is Talenti, it has a great selection of flavors, some are of other desserts too. Some people that eat gelato like Talenti, like me some like Chocolate Moose too.
Milkshakes are another great way to cool down. You can make them at home and include all kinds of flavors. It also has health benefits like carbohydrates, protein, vitamins, and more. I don’t have a specific place or brand I like, but Jiffy Treat is a great place to get a milkshake. Jiffy Treat and Steak & Shake are mostly the favorites to get milkshakes. Some other good places are Chick-Fil-A, The Crazy Mason, and Dairy Queen!
Smoothies are my last pick but they are still delicious. It is perfect to add your favorite fruits and possibly veggies if you want to. Smoothies provide you with vitamin C, which acts as an antioxidant. I enjoy making smoothies at home, but Rush Bowls is also a great place to get smoothie bowls. Most of the students make their smoothies at home but some like the mall smoothies and Smoothie King.
All of these are great things to cool you down over the summer. Now you know all about the best brands, places to get these treats, and more! If you’d like to fill out this form saying your favorite summer treats click this Link.
