Joe’s Ice Cream & Beverage Co.

After touring Old Towne Bluffton in 100 degree weather, we decided a cool treat was what we all needed. With Covid, the pick up window was the only option and indoor seating closed. We each got a single scoop in a cup since we thought it was too hot to sit outside. The ice creams are handmade and organic. They use a vanilla base and that definitely stood out in the taste. We had cherry, praline pecan and coffee. Each person mentioned the vanilla being the primary flavor in each of the ice creams. It made the cherry and coffee flavors more subtle, versus what we are used to in store bought. Still very good and creamy. I believe Joe said they have a GF cone too.
