WOODBURY, MN (WNN) – Of course we scream for ice cream, especially in the summer. The Roundabout, your favorite source of Woodbury news, is always working to bring you the scoops. Now, we can even share ice cream scoops with you.
This list is a triple scoop starting with Woodbury establishments that specialize in bringing you ice cream in many delicious forms. The second scoop is ice cream found in the dessert sections of Woodbury restaurant menus for those who want to end their meal on a cool note. The final scoop, which we will bring you next week, features places a bit farther away but worth packing the kids in the car and heading for a special treat.
Hurry before summer melts away!
