Memorial Day Weekend is just days away, and in our eyes, we can now safely say ‘Hello Summer’! Our minds will (or probably already have) start imagining and daydreaming about all of our favorite seasonable pleasures; sunshine, the beach, pools, sunglasses, lemonades, watermelon, and of course, ice cream. PureWow, a trendy and boutique website, devoted an entire article breaking down the best ice cream spots and flavors from our beloved fifty states. Even though America does not suffer from a shortage of ice cream parlors, there is no denying some just simply stand out from the rest. Some state winners came as no surprise, like Ben and Jerry’s victory over Vermont. It is after all the original home to the Ben and Jerry’s factory. However, other winners were not as predictable. Alaska, for instance, a state you probably wouldn’t associate with stellar ice cream, is home to Hot Licks Homemade Ice Cream in Fairbanks, Alaska.
