We sampled several flavors of their ice cream, and thankfully the staff didn't get tired of giving us samples because it was hard to choose! We finally decided to get two pints of vanilla and then went over to Molly's Cupcakes to pick out some delicious cupcakes to go with our ice cream! Great shop! Highly recommend them!“

“i discovered 8 Degrees in Des Moines when I was dropping my son off at Drake in May, and I immediately fell in love with this place! ❤

The fruit tea series is absolutely amazing. I especially love the Dragon Fruit Tea and the 8 Degrees, which includes fresh lemongrass—it is beyond amazing! Everything tastes so fresh and flavorful, and I love all of the fresh options they offer.

Since moving my son to Des Moines, I make it a point to visit 8 Degrees every time I fly in. I usually make it there at least 3–4 times during my stay! The customer service is wonderful, the drinks are delicious, and you can really taste the quality and freshness in everything.

If you’re in Des Moines, you definitely need to give 8 Degrees a try. It has quickly become one of my favorite places to visit! 💚🍵“
