Treats from El Arcoíris
You may remember hearing about this hidden gem in Kokomo, a new Mexican bakery, ice cream shop and restaurant on the east side. But if you didn’t, El Arcoíris is a one-of-a-kind stop for the sweet treats you didn’t know your life was missing.
The Mangonada is a frozen mango smoothie, with Chamoy, Tajin and fresh mango.
The sweetness of the mango, the spice from the lime and chili seasoning, and the tang of the Chamoy create a wonderful and flavorful masterpiece.
Also try their mini pancakes, which can be topped with whatever you like for a fun bite-sized treat.
Located at 2607 E. Markland Ave., Kokomo
