Have you ever tasted Hazelnut Baobab or Pistachio Lucuma ice cream? If not, it’s time to stop by Tribeca Ice Cream in the Kollwitzkiez. Not only are there plenty of exciting flavors to discover, the ice cream itself is all vegan and deliciously creamy. Everything here is made in-house with organic nut milk, cocoa butter and coconut oil – and all without refined sugar. Then living in the Tribeca neighborhood of New York City, founder Klaus Zinsmeister sought to address the lack of tasty vegan ice cream and began trying his hand at ice cream recipes. His passion quickly became a profession and he quit his job in finance to open a pop-up ice cream shop in the USA. In 2017 Tribeca opened in Berlin, and Klaus runs the small, airy ice cream parlor together with his brother Frank and business partner Paul. Awaiting you at the shop are pastel-colored benches out front, offering the perfect shady spot for warm days. The Blue Coconut, dyed using butterfly pea tea leaves, is one of many refreshing highlights along with the ice cream sandwiches. Whether you get your fix to go or choose to hang around, this place will keep you cheerful all summer long. (Text: Katie Burton / Photos: Johanna Rademacher-Flesland)
