It’s near the end of August, but that doesn’t mean it’s time to pack up the shorts and sandals in favor of fur-lined coats and boots. As the season winds down, it’s time to ramp up your efforts to soak up as much sun – and summertime activities – as possible. And what’s more summery than a perfectly sweet, cool, ice cream cone? This ice cream parlor in Minnesota may be busy, but their treats are so worth waiting in line for. Take a look:

Izzy’s Ice Cream is located at 2034 Marshall Ave., St. Paul, MN 55104. There’s a second location in Minneapolis at 1100 S. 2nd St., Minneapolis, MN 55415.

Both locations are as charming and summery as you would expect. As if an ice cream parlor would be anything other than the happiest place on Earth.

As for the flavors, there couldn’t be more choices. You can’t go wrong with classics such as Chocolate Mint or French Vanilla.

But Izzy’s is known for its more out-there flavors, too. Ever wondered what basil ice cream would taste like? Or how about ice cream flavored like Jell-O salad? Find those - and more - here!

But you don’t just get one flavor at Izzy’s. Each treat is topped off with an Izzy scoop, a tiny scoop of ice cream - free of charge! - that allows you to try another flavor.
