Palateria La Flor De Michoacan

You won’t be able to drive down the road and find the place as it is tucked inside Walmart. I believe they are a chain, and this is their only location in Dallas. As the name implies the have paletas (popsicles), as well as homemade ice cream, and aguas frescas. They are always willing to offer a sample of any of the aguas frescas and ice creams if you aren’t sure. The prices are really low, under two bucks for a small ice cream or small drink. Natural, freshly made food lacking high prices, and pretense, count me in. Both the aguas frescas and the ice cream vary in sweetness depending on the flavor. I found the Mango ice cream to be surprisingly mellow, and not too sweet. I also had an ice cream that was flavored with nuts, it was sweet and had a slight maple flavor to it. I was curious about Horchata which is a beverage made with rice, cinnamon, and water. It was surprisingly good, mildly sweet with a hint of cinnamon. Honestly I expected it to be bad. The Coco agua fresca is very sweet and fragrant and has bits of shredded coconut in it. The Tamarindo has a hint of tartness and a flavor similar to tea. The Jamaica has a wonderful aroma and a flavor that just cant be compared to anything.
