As every American knows by now, on Sunday, July 18, the country celebrates National Ice Cream Day.
Tamara Keefe, founder of the St. Louis mini-chain Clementine’s Naughty and Nice Ice Cream, is ready. “It’s our busiest day of the year in terms of customers and revenue,” she says. Keefe estimates that “on a super busy hot summer Saturday, we’ll do 1,000 or 1,100 people.” On National Ice Cream day, that number rises to range from 1,500 to 2,000. “Sales are almost double.”
