100% organic base. Dairy-free. Gluten-free Options. Nut-free. A house-made coconut milk base so creamy, so rich — you'll forget dairy was ever the standard.
"The texture/consistency is actually better than dairy ice cream. They always have fun flavors and the people working are always the sweetest."
"Seriously I wouldn't even know it's vegan! I had the Belgian chocolate & cookies 'n cream — both were so creamy and full of flavor."
"This is THE best plant based ice cream I have ever had! I wish I lived in Nashville just to get this ice cream!"
"Best ice cream ever. Wow — really incredible whether you have dietary restrictions or not. Adorable space with a truly wonderful vibe. Definitely worth a visit."
"I won't even say this is the best 'vegan' ice cream I've had — it's hands down just the best ice cream I've ever had! Rotating flavors and such a fun spot."
Sam Brooker and Jerusa van Lith didn't plan to become ice cream disruptors — they were deep in Nashville's music industry. Sam can't eat dairy, so what started as a search for better options became a full-blown obsession. In 2019 they launched KOKOS (Dutch for coconut, a nod to Jerusa's Amsterdam roots) and built a devoted following — entirely through word of mouth. Not a single dollar spent on paid marketing. Nine years strong.
Step into the flagship at OneC1TY and you feel it immediately — emerald velvet seating, warm lighting, happy plants, and pale ice-cream-colored walls. Mirrors everywhere so you feel good about treating yourself. No guilt. Just joy.
The base is 100% organic coconut milk and cream, organic sugar, pink Himalayan salt, premium chocolate, and fresh fruit. No artificial dyes, no shortcuts. European gelato silkiness meets classic American ice cream richness. People walk in skeptical, take one bite, and say the same thing: "Wait — this is plant-based?"
Given the choice, I would choose Kokos over regular ice cream — the flavors are balanced, it's not greasy, it's creamy to the max with no stodgy aftertaste, and I feel light and happy afterward.
From music industry veterans to creators of the creamiest low-allergen plant-based ice cream on the planet — meet the Nashville duo proving that "alternative" can actually mean superior.
KOKOS isn't just making great ice cream — they're building the loyalty infrastructure that every local business wishes it had. SKOOP is what happens when a founder actually understands both Web3 and their customer.
Nashville's beloved plant-based scoop shop just launched $SKOOP — a crypto loyalty token that lets customers buy, earn, and pay on-chain. Here's why it actually makes sense.
This is the creamiest dairy-free ice cream I've ever had! And I used to work at an ice cream shop at a dairy farm so I have high standards.
Blew me away how creamy it tasted. Not watered down at all. Best ice cream I have had regardless of vegan or not.
It's vegan and nut-free but it tastes and feels like real ice cream. THE CREAMIEST ice cream ever.
Est. Nashville, 2017
No dairy. No nuts. No Eggs. No artificial anything. Just organic coconut milk and cream, real ingredients, and a recipe so good it makes people question everything they thought they knew about ice cream.
