If you thought El Arcoiris was just another ice cream shop, think again!
This locally owned Kokomo business serves up an exciting combination of traditional Mexican frozen treats, colorful desserts, refreshing drinks and savory Mexican favorites, giving customers plenty of delicious reasons to stop by.
In the latest episode of Kokomo Uncovered, partnered with Robert Miller & Son Furniture, we're taking you inside El Arcoiris to explore the unique flavors and sweet treats that make this local business stand out.
A Little Taste of the Rainbow
Located at 2607 E. Markland Avenue in Kokomo, El Arcoiris is a Mexican sweet shop offering a wide variety of colorful treats and delicious food.
The name El Arcoiris translates to "The Rainbow" in Spanish, and once you see the variety of colorful desserts and drinks they offer, it's easy to understand why!
Inside, customers can explore a selection of ice cream, traditional Mexican popsicles known as paletas, milkshakes, frozen drinks and other sweet treats.
But what really sets El Arcoiris apart from your typical ice cream shop is its unique combination of flavors.
From fruity and refreshing to sweet, tangy and spicy, there are plenty of opportunities to try something a little different.
Sweet, Spicy and Everything in Between
One of the most interesting things about El Arcoiris is the way traditional Mexican flavors come together in their desserts and drinks.
Take their mango drink, for example.
This colorful creation combines mango, lime, chamoy, chili lime seasoning and a tamarind straw for a refreshing combination of sweet, spicy and tangy flavors.
It's the kind of treat that offers something completely different from your typical smoothie or milkshake.
And that's part of what makes visiting El Arcoiris such a fun experience.
You might walk in planning to order your usual ice cream, but after looking at the menu, you could find yourself wanting to try something you've never had before.
It's Not Just About Dessert!
Here's something else that might surprise you.
El Arcoiris doesn't just serve sweet treats!
The business also offers savory Mexican favorites, including street tacos, tortas and other delicious menu items.
That means you can stop in for a meal and finish things off with a refreshing dessert, all in one place.
