Summer is here and the heat is on! And to boot, July is National Ice Cream Month!
I mean, does summer eating get any better than sitting outside on a hot day eating an ice cream cone or licking a popsicle? No. No it does not.
We’ve been reviewing tons of frozen treats here at Two Cousins this spring and summer and we thought it was time to pull together a list of our favorites. We’d love to hear your favorites too so drop them in the Comments section below the list!
