Ice Cream
Did you know that local favorite Pizzelle’s, best known for their artisan truffles, offers ice cream?
Did you know that they now offer ice cream made with a local brew?
Featuring Salty Nut Brewery‘s Hop Naughty IPA and local peaches this cool treat is topped with both peach sauce and brown butter caramel.
Popsicles
Suzie’s Pops carries a couple of different “Lushy Pops” mixed in with their more family friendly fare.
Our nod goes to the Mint Julep which features fresh mint and bourbon from Huntsville based Irons Distillery.
Milkshakes
If you’ve not made it past their extensive dessert menu, then you may not have discovered that The Chocolate Bar offers seven different “Alpine Chinos“.
Check out Oranges and Cream for a summer throwback.
Floats
If root beer floats remind you of summer and adding booze sounds like a sweet siren call, then head on over to Farmburger.
You’ll have your pick of turning Green Man Porter, Well Banana Bread Beer, or Urban Orchard Cider into new summer memories.
