Uprooting your family from your hometown can always be a little scary. We've been learning our way around locating the drug store and grocery store and so on. Lucky for us the village of Tweed isn't a bustling metropolis so it hasn't been that challenging. I know there are some hidden gems in this town that I haven't found yet though!
Our most recent adventure was to the Arctic Rock ice cream stand!
The stand is located at 560 Moira Street across the road from the Tim Hortons.
They boast a wide variety of unique flavors while using local ingredients whenever possible. They are also 100% Canadian!
We drive by the stand often enough and I usually make note of their signs every few days advertising a new flavor. One day I noticed the sign said 'try our red velvet cake ice cream' and I knew I had to go. Sadly when we finally got around to going they were sold out of the red velvet flavor (sad pouty face). I moved on though and started examining their original flavors as well as the tried favorites like cookies and cream and tiger tale.
The boys stayed true to their favorites, Jack had cotton candy (with gummy bears on top), while Max had cookies and cream.
Anthony had butterscotch ripple and I had a flavor called Tin Roof Sundae (I think it was Sundae). It was a vanilla ice cream with a caramel ribbon and chocolate covered peanuts. YUM! Need I say more?
I would definitely make time to stop at this little stand on your way through Tweed on hwy 37. You just might find something new!
