"An ice-cream shop owned by Anthony Sobotik and Chad Palmatier that makes ice creams from scratch using local, seasonal ingredients and milk and cream from a Central Texas dairy. The fresh mint and chocolate chunks scoop from the everyday menu is singled out as a winner; patrons are encouraged to enjoy it slowly while people-watching on the lawn." - Courtney E. Smith
"An Austin‑based mini‑chain ideal for the city's long summers, known for inventive frozen treats like a grapefruit paloma cone with tequila and sea salt and an affogato made with local honey and Madagascar vanilla that serve as refreshing dessert options after dinner." - Brandon Watson
"This local favorite has shops scattered across Austin, each one serving a plethora of thoughtfully crafted flavors made from seasonal Texas ingredients. Head to the South Lamar, Mueller, or Burnet Road location and try the salted caramel or goat cheese with thyme and honey. Flavors rotate often, but the Texas Sheet Cake staple is always a crowd-pleaser. Vegan options are also available. Ordering online for pickup is available." - Darcie Duttweiler
"Lick Honest Ice Creams is offering a special flavor called Solar Eclipse of the Heart — vanilla bean–brown sugar ice cream swirled with chocolate sauce and edible glitter — available Thursday, April 4 through Monday, April 8; customers who bring eclipse glasses get a free topping, and purchases are in person." - Nadia Chaudhury
"The Austin ice cream mini-chain is offering its special Kiss Me I’m Irish Coffee ice cream through St. Patrick’s Day from all of its locations. It’s a coffee with cream ice cream with Jameson whiskey and a chocolate whiskey sauce." - Nadia Chaudhury
