Houston’s Best Ice Cream and Cold Treats To Beat the Heat
Sigh, the Houston heat is here earlier than we expected, but don’t stress, we’re going to cool you down with some of our favorite cold treats! Host Raheel Ramzanali is talking to Josh De Leon, head ice cream slinger at Underground Creamery, about the best cold treats we need to try to fight these blistering days. To change things up a bit, Raheel and Josh are picking their frozen treats in a sports-style draft going back and forth for five rounds.
