Labor Day weekend is the perfect time to dig into Denver's thriving ice cream scene. Which spot is your favorite?
winner in 2022. Although it sits only a sidewalk away from busy East Colfax, it has managed to hold fast to the friendly vibe of a Midwestern ice cream parlor. The menu is full of crowd-friendly flavors with cute names as well as floats, malts, splits and waffle tacos.
As Kimball put it, Nuggs's specialty is"classic flavors that feel fresh." With that in mind, I went for an upper Midwest favorite, Blue Moon. No, it doesn't have anything to do with the orange-garnished beer — rather, it's a famously secret amalgamation that's often compared to Froot Loops, or a mix of almond, citrus and raspberry. It was my first time actually trying the vivid blue-dyed ice cream, and to me, it was most reminiscent of sweet, fruity bergamot.
There's even an emphasis on making high-quality vegan flavors, a category many other ice cream shops tend to wave away with a basic fruit sorbet or two. I'm already an established admirer of Sweet Action's vegan pints, which are available at metro-wide Whole Foods and Natural Grocers . I overheard a friendly employee telling another customer that there is an archive of 2,000 revolving flavors. Twenty of these were available on our visit, and I was mightily tempted by the taster of pandan that we tried. I needed a palate refresh, though, and opted for the Chile Lime Sorbet while Kimball ordered a scoop each of Trail Mix studded with soaked raisins and Hazelnut Cherry Swirl.
Sweet Cow is one of the most popular ice cream shops in Colorado, with seven locations across Denver, Boulder and Longmont.Good forSweet Cow was founded in 2010 by Drew Honness and has been"scooping smiles" — and expanding to seven locations that range from Longmont to Platt Park — ever since. Peek behind the counter and you'll notice stacks of candies, boxes of cereal and packages of Oreos waiting for their turn on the menu.
