Consider this an invitation to chill out. Your office probably doesn’t have a slip n’ slide, and running through the sprinklers likely won’t go over well with your boss. Don’t sweat it — you can still feel like a kid again by ordering ice cream on demand with #UberIceCream.

This Friday, July 24, 2015, we’re bringing a frozen favorite back for the fourth year in a row. This is a global promotion with local flavor, and it’s as simple as ever: tap a button and get a brain freeze in hundreds of cities around the world.

We’ve partnered with Thelma’s Treats in Des Moines to bring folks an incredible four-pack of homemade ice cream cookie sandwiches.

Plus, to celebrate Iowa’s legendary bike race this week, we’re going to be delivering these awesome treats in downtown Des Moines by pedicab, courtesy of Des Bike Pedicab.
