Located in Owensboro, KY
There will be times when the temperature gets a little warm, but it doesn’t have to be that hot for you to decide you must go out for ice cream. If you’re in the Owensboro, KY orbit and in search of something chilly in a bowl, dish, or cone, you might like to check out any of the following fine purveyors of icy goodness.
1. Lic’s Ice-Cream & Deli
At Lic’s, you could go “healthy” and start off with something other than dessert, since it’s a full-service deli with sandwiches and salads, not to mention soups. But we understand that you want to get to the good stuff! There are more than 20 flavors, plus sorbet, too! If you like milkshakes or smoothies, well, they do those, as well. Sundaes, splits, and “choco-cremes,” which are ice-cream-filled bites dipped in chocolate, move the sweet needle even further!
2. Ritzy’s
Ritzy’s is actually a local two-shop fast food diner drive-through place, and people love it for the burgers and fries. But the cold dessert could sneak up on you, with flavor choices like Swiss almond chocolate and the seasonal candy cane, which is, of course, all about the peppermint. An “Itzy Ritzy meal” comes with a scoop, which is more than many fast-food joints can ever boast. Try the milkshakes, too.
3. Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers
Okay, we could be stretching it a bit here, but we think frozen custard pretty much counts! In addition to the fairly extensive menu of steakburgers, Freddy’s offers frozen custard in flavors like Chocolate Brownie Delight, Key Lime Pie Concrete, and Dirt n’ Worms. The latter can be a tall or short cup of vanilla custard, topped with crumbled Oreo cookies and gummy worms. You get the idea!
4. Pinky’s SnowCones & Snacks
You’ll find bakery treats here as well as savory items like loaded chili cheese dogs to build a foundation to top with your cold dessert! This too is a little of a departure from the title treat and features snow cones with intense colors and flavors to refresh you! Try the Funky Monkey glowing in bright red and yellow (strawberry and banana), the blue raspberry-based Crowe’s Delight, the Pink Bubble Gum, and the Blue Cotton Candy, plus many more.
On a warm day when you’re up for frozen treats, try a swoopy, aerodynamic Mazda CX-30 so you can cut coolly across town to pick them up. A used Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring SUV would also be a fine choice when you have a whole crew to haul over to the dessert parlor. Have a look at either one or many more Mazdas at Champion Mazda Owensboro today!
