Turn your sweet tooth into tangible change. At least, that’s our newest excuse for grabbing a delicious pint of ice cream from Brookside’s French Custard.
The sweet shop’s latest initiative, Token Tuesdays, awards customers who buy a pint of any flavor on Tuesdays (ahem, like today) with a $1 dollar token to share with a local nonprofit. Drop your token into one of three jars — currently Kanabe’s Markets, First Call, or Pawsperity — and, at the end of the month, French Custard will tally the total and donate the equivalent to each charity. That’s a win-win in our book.
The nonprofits change each month, along with the flavors. We recommend trying the shop’s rotating Traveler’s Series, which features ice cream inspired by its owners’ trips abroad — on the itinerary this month: Mexico City.
