It’s hot as Satan’s underpants outside. And humid as hell to boot. But just around the corner from Cumberland Mall, the temperature is getting ready to drop a few degrees.
Pinkberry – the gourmet frozen yogurt chain – opens tomorrow in Atlanta in the Akers Mill Shopping Center. Now some of you might be thinking, “Frozen yogurt? That’s so late 80s!” But the California-based chain has taken the concept of frozen yogurt to modern new heights with its use of hormone-free dairy, fresh high-quality fruit toppings like blackberries, mango and kiwi, and store designs that make you feel cool just for being there.
I got my first taste of Pinkberry when I visited L.A. last fall, and fell in love instantly! I’m even more thrilled now that I no longer have to travel across country to taste it again. I highly recommend the passionfruit yogurt with some fresh blackberry and kiwi… I’m drooling just thinking about it.
stay cool kids,

Thanks so much for the mention! We’re very excited to be bringing the swirly goodness of Pinkberry to Atlanta! Just so you know, Passionfruit will be on vacation so that we can bring you our exclusive new summer flavor, Watermelon, but it will be returning to some locations in August.
Watermelon Pinkberry served with freshly diced watermelon, freshly blended watermelon puree and freshly diced cucumber is juicy, cool and refreshing, so be sure to try some during your visit. Best of all, join us from 5-7pm daily for our Watermelon Happy Hour when every purchase of a Watermelon flavor Pinkberry is 1/2 off! We look forward to hearing your thoughts on the opening!

Hey there, I am working on a Locals Know Best project and we are looking for experts in Atlanta. It seems you may know your city better than most!
The goal of the project is to find locals who know their city forward and back in any specific category. It can be food, music, fitness, sports, night life…anything!!
Take a look at the website http://www.localsknowbest.com (will be up July 8th) and let me know if you’d be willing to lend your expertise or know someone who should.
