🍦🎸 Punks Not Dead… and neither is root beer.

At Ross Street Ice Cream Company, we’re throwin’ it back today with a bold classic:

🥄 Root Beer Ice Cream – made from scratch with rich root beer extract and cream so smooth it could headline its own tour.
🔥 Topped with our handmade root beer marshmallow, because we believe in weird little details that make things unforgettable.

🎶 And today’s featured track from our punk rock playlist:
“Punks Not Dead” by The Exploited – a shout from the underground that’s still as loud and alive as ever. Just like us.

We’ve got punk and metal shows coming soon right inside the shop, and we’re building the hype one scoop and one song at a time. This isn’t just ice cream—it’s an attitude.

Come grab a bowl, blast some punk, and prove that sweet things can still have a spine.

🌧️ Closed Today Due to Rain — Here’s the Scoop 🌧️

As fun as it is to lose money (wink), we’re closed today because… rain.
And when it rains? About three people come in all day.

Rather than waste power, energy, and ingredients, we close on days like this to help keep our prices down and our quality high. Rain days are lost days — simple as that.

If you’ve ever wondered why our ice cream costs more than a grocery store tub, here’s why:
• We’re only open 4.5 months a year.
• We don’t cut corners — some of our ice creams run about 40% overrun, which puts them pretty dang close to gelato in texture and quality.
• And we don’t stay open just to watch the drizzle.

We’ll be back when the sun shines.
Until then, stay warm, stay dry, and thanks for supporting small-batch, handcrafted ice cream made right here on Ross Street. 🍦

🎶 This is how… you remind me… that ice cream still slaps. 🎶

Forget the heat, forget the week, forget that one weird coffee date —
grab an ice cream flight from Ross Street Ice Cream Co. and remind yourself what joy tastes like.

Pick six flavours — mix, match, experiment, argue with your friends over who got the best combo (you did, obviously).
Sweet, creamy, tangy, nostalgic… whatever vibe you need, we’ve got a scoop for it.

This isn’t just a treat — it’s a full-blown flavour experience.

Come fly with us. 🍦✈️

🌿🍨 Experimental Flavour Alert! 🍨🌿

We’re diving deep into the weird and wonderful over here at Ross Street Ice Cream Company. Over the next couple weeks, we’ll be rolling out some experimental new flavours — made with real ingredients, not just flavouring.

Here’s what’s in the works:

🍓 Strawberry Pink Peppercorn
🍍 Pineapple Thai Basil
🍑 Peach Rosemary
🍋 Lemon Miso
🫐 Blackberry Earl Grey
🍯 Saskatoon Sage Honey

We’re not interested in doing the same old thing — these are bold, herbaceous, surprising, and totally scratch-made.

🍦🔥 YOU’RE GONNA HAVE TO SCREAM FOR YOUR CREAM 🔥🍦

We’re done playing it quiet. This isn’t your grandma’s ice cream shop anymore.

We’re making the best homemade ice cream in the city — bold, loud flavours that don’t whisper. And now we’re turning the volume up on the whole place.

Introducing: Ice Cream Shop Sessions
🎸 Live punk & metal shows — inside the shop
🥁 Drum kits on the front counter
🍺 Booze + handmade ice cream
🕗 8–9PM start | Ends by 11PM

We’ll still scoop cones for the kids during the day — but after hours, we’re turning Ross Street Ice Cream into a tiny, loud, sweaty venue that rips.

If you’re in a punk, metal, or loud rock band, message us or talk to Brett. We pay. We’re serious. We’re about to make this place scream.

Come get loud. Or stay soft. Your call. Stay tuned for dates.

🔥☀️ Heat Advisory? More Like a Sweet Emergency! 🍦Red Deer, it’s hotter than a scoop of jalapeño sorbet out here—and we’ve got the prescription: one heaping cone of ice-cold therapy from Ross Street Ice Cream Co.
Doctors probably don’t recommend three scoops of sour watermelon as a medical treatment... but let’s be honest, they’ve never been downtown during a heat warning.
🌡️ Forecast: 3036°C 💡 Plan: Sprint, skip, or somersault to the shop 🚨 Side effect: Extreme happiness and sticky fingers
Tag your “ice cream emergency contact” and get down here before we all turn into puddles! 🍨💦
