With summer in full swing, it’s always good to have some ways to cool down in your back pocket. Nothing says you deserve to indulge in a sweet treat more than bearing the triple digit heat day in and day out for several months. Thankfully, Downtown Tempe’s ¾ square mile business district is packed with a delicious selection of cold desserts for those trying to stay cool this summer, and we're not here to judge. Enjoy.
