Kick your summer diet to the curb and indulge in free treats in Georgetown.
To celebrate its 10th year in business, Sprinkles, which was voted runner up for Best Cupcake in the 2015 Best of Northwest, will give out free cupcakes until 9 p.m. and introduce a new flavor. The cupcakery opened its doors in Beverly Hills a decade ago, and since then, Sprinkles says it has served 25 million red velvet cupcakes.
Sprinkles is located at 3015 M St. NW.
On Tuesday, it’s Free Cone Day at Ben & Jerry’s from noon until 8 p.m. The holiday is probably older than you are: Ben & Jerry’s has given out free cones once a year since 1979. According to its website, 47 percent of frugal ice cream fans will order chocolate chip cookie dough, but this being the capital, Stephen Colbert’s Americone Dream is probably more popular.
Ben & Jerry’s is located at 3135 M St. NW.
