Best Bests: Frozen Yogurt

Here's the scoop, my friends ( forgive the corny pun), you've got your ice cream parlors, your custard stands, smoothie stops, and frozen yogurt counters.

What's the difference?

In brief, we all know that ice cream is made with milk and sugar, so that's a no brainer.  Custards are similar, but also include eggs (usually the egg yoke), giving it a fluffier consistency and different flavor.  Smoothies are a frozen beverage made from blended fruit and vegetable juices, and many places also add in custard or frozen yogurt by request.  Frozen yogurt usually has a tarter flavor, because it is made from a fermented milk which produces live active cultures.

Below are a list of the top frozen yogurt places in Tampa Bay.  High in vitamins, minerals, protein and live cultures, yogurt provides healthy body support, so you can indulge during a hot day, without regretting it later.
