Go ahead! Serve yourself. And make it something creamy ‘n sweet, like frozen yogurt from Josie’s Self-Serve Frozen Yogurt, located in the District at Green Valley Ranch. You know the drill, pick your flavor, load it up with toppings and enjoy, but know that Josie’s is serving up something a little different. Josie’s stands out from other frozen yogurt shops for its use of pure crystalline fructose rather than high fructose corn syrup. They’ve also ditched the stabilizers and emulsifiers to create a more natural, great tasting dessert. Now that that’s out of the way, you can focus on flavor–over 100 rotating variations of rich chocolate, zesty fruits, nostalgic vanilla and oh so many tasty combinations. Any way you like it, it’s dessert, all grown up. Visit www.josiesselfservefrozenyogurt.com to learn more.
