Sweet Action Ice Cream
Denver, Colo.
Buzz Flavor: Horchata
Another ice cream shop dedicated to locally sourced ingredients, Sweet Action works with a local dairy farm in Longmont, Colo. and local bakeries. They even have a hometown spice shop at their finger tips. This is probably the reason that you get flavors like Horchata -- a drink often made with rice.

From their ice creams to their candies to their sodas, everything is made in-house and that's why when you order a scoop of Baklava or Chocolate Wasabi will taste amazingly fresh and creamy.

The store produces a new menu of flavors everyday but you need to check their Twitter page for the update.


Rick's Rather Rich Ice Cream
Palo Alto, Calif.
Buzz Flavor: Lemon Lavender
Not far from Humphry Slocombe, you'll find Rick's in Palo Alto. For many years, this ice cream spot has been serving up a combination of classic flavors and those for a more mature palate, like Rose and, of course, Lemon Lavender. And for years, customers have kept coming back for more.

Just recently what was once a little scoop shop expanded to include seating for all of their ice cream fans. Forty-eight of their ice cream flavors are ready to be scooped. Sorbet, frozen yogurt and delicious, homemade fudge are also on the menu now.

With all the flavors available, it's no wonder that this ice cream shop has managed to get so many fans. They are certainly a local favorite.
