Handcrafted ice cream in creative, unique flavors and house-made cones
"Milk + Sugar taps into the Houston dining scene with a case full of rich flavors that often include Asian diasporic flavors. Think Thai tea, a yum cha flavor featuring chrysanthemum and pandan swirl, and a seasonal milk tea ice cream. Diners can dig into other flavors, too, like the seasonal Love is Love (strawberry ice cream cake with confetti cake in celebration of Pride), the happy wife (a perfect combination of sweet cream ice cream and homemade almond pound cake), and a remarkably satisfying PB Cookies and Cream. Best of all, if making a decision is difficult, Milk + Sugar gives generous samples and offers the opportunity to half-scoop flavors (one scoop with two flavors). They’re also super considerate of their lactose-intolerant fan base, and sell Lactaid pills at the register for 50 cents." - Brianna Griff
"The Montrose scoop shop Milk & Sugar serves inventive ice cream flavors worth lining up for. Like “heart of glass” with chunks of sweet blondies laced in cinnamon sugar or a cereal milk option with bits of frosted flakes. Open until midnight on the weekends, Milk & Sugar gets pretty busy with throngs of teens sharing Thai tea double-scoop cones, folks squeezing in a date-night sweet treat, and neighborhood locals who regularly walk over for whatever seasonal flavor is currently in rotation." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene

"I appreciate inventive ice cream flavors, but I ultimately lean toward options that do less and amplify the cold creaminess; Milk + Sugar’s “happy wife” flavor was simple yet tended to with care. The sweet cream was embellished with chunks of an almond pound cake made in-house, which charmed my southern soul and those of the customers around me." - Kayla Stewart
"This Westheimer sweet shop’s seasonal ice cream 'It’s Fall, Y’all' uses a sweet potato base and is studded with chunks of sweet cornbread and warming spices like cinnamon and nutmeg, delivering a distinctly autumnal, comforting scoop." - Amy McCarthy
