Does the sound of the ice cream truck have you salivating, reaching for your wallet, and doing your best to observe a “walk, don’t run” in the city policy?
(Is that even a real question?)
The expression, “I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!” exists for a reason. So how can you satisfy your craving for a frozen treat in the hot summer without the guilt?
By following our advice on these delicious treasures you can track down in New York City:
Tasti D lite: The Queen Bee of Healthy Frozen Treats with multiple locations throughout the city, Tasti D lite boasts, “Most of our flavors have 70 calories (or less), with fewer than 1.5 grams of fat and 14 grams of carbs per four-ounce serving.” Check out their website for nutritional details on all of their flavors.
People’s Pops: With in season locations at Chelsea Market, Park Slope, the Highline and more, People’s Pops and shave ice are made with local, seasonal fruit and a dash of organic cane sugar. Cool down without worrying about breaking a sweat to work off what you ate during your cool down later.
One Lucky Duck: Located next door to Pure Food and Wine, their sister company in Gramercy Park, One Lucky Duck makes vegan ice cream with coconut, coconut oil, cashews, agave and other raw ingredients. Deliciousness with none of the regret!
DF Mavens: DF Mavens on St. Mark’s serves all dairy-free ice cream, using coconut milk or almond milk as a base, so you get all of the creaminess and none of the heaviness.
