a Cold Stone Creamery near me!\u00a0 But for some reason, there are TONS of Nekter Juice Bars around so I got to try all three flavors here!\u00a0 So let\u2019s take a look at them!<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a bigger picture of the sign advertising the flavors.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/icecream5\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

mind that since this is a \u2018juice bar,\u2019 these are healthy ice cream alternatives.\u00a0 So they don\u2019t taste quite as good.\u00a0 At least not to me anyway.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mario Kart

Cookie Monster ice cream you can get at Braum\u2019s.\u00a0 Braum\u2019s is an ice cream and hamburger chain found in the Central South states, like Texas (where I live).\u00a0 The neat thing about Braum\u2019s is that some of them even have a mini grocery store where they sell tubs of their ice cream and other mostly dairy products.\u00a0 Anyway, the Mario Kart flavor doesn\u2019t taste as good as the Cookie Monster one, but the cookie crumbs mixed in do help.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Splatlands Birthday<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/icecream1\/\"><img

birthday cake I guess.\u00a0 But to me it just tastes like sprinkles mixed in that imitation iced milk.\u00a0 I hope I never get a birthday cake like that.\u00a0 Definitely the weakest of the flavors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kirby\u2019s Berry Dream<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/icecream3\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full
