She Said: Snoh is the experience you need on a hot Arizona day

With Arizona’s high summer temperatures quickly approaching, Snoh is a place you must go try!

Snoh is a cross between ice cream and shaved iced — originally called bao bing — and can be historically tracked as early as the seventh century in China.

Thank goodness us Phoenician can conveniently drive over to Snoh to get a taste of this cool treat. The consistency is quickly addicting and feels like light fluffy snow that is so airy it just evaporates on your tongue in a cotton candy-type of way.

On the few visits I have made to Snoh, I ended up just staring up at the menu for a long time. I am so indecisive because, quite honestly, everything sounds interestingly good and my curiosity takes over.

With options like the Sesame Street (black sesame Snoh, M&Ms, Oreo cookies and butterscotch) or Mountain of Dew (honey dew Snoh, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, mochi balls and caramel), it’s just too hard to decide.

Their best seller, the Breakfast Bowl (milk crème Snoh, Fruity Pebbles, strawberries and condensed milk), is a taste bud’s dream come true!

The small parlor is always hopping, and to some patrons, is a neighborhood place to hangout — people chatting, laughing and playing board games fill the quaint space.

If you haven’t tried it for yourself, you must. It’s definitely more than just a stop at your local ice cream joint, it is an experience!
