As summer temps sizzle, who doesn’t scream for ice cream? Here is a roundup of Austin-area favorites to beat the Texas heat:
• Lick Honest Ice Creams feature flavors bursting with the best of summer’s bounty. Think Strawberry Basil, Cherry Limeade and Orange You Glad it’s Pride (from the LGBTQIA+ owned scoop shop. Plus, housemade waffle cones.
• At Amy’s Ice Creams, what began with Mexican Vanilla has exploded into 350 rotating flavors – not to mention dairy-free fruit ices and frozen yogurt.
• Kool creations – like velvety smooth Italian ice infused with pureed fruit – abound at Jim-Jim’s Water-Ice. Fat-, cholesterol- and gluten-free. Wahoo!
