Highline Ice Cream Crawl

What you need:

A group of four to seven friends; about $35 (ask each person to bring $5-$10); copies of this map and pens to write notes; plenty of bottled water; and Wet Naps.

How it works:

Your group orders one dessert (and lots of spoons) at each stop so everyone gets taste. Record your tasting notes and report back to scooponcones on which was your favorite. Tell us on Twitter using #icecreamcrawl and @scooponcones. Or post your comments on our reviews!

It’s best to go on a weekend to catch them all. Even so, these are mobile vendors so there’s no guarantee that each one will be at its regular spot.

*Van Leeuwen Artisanal Ice Cream: Ice cream truck that focuses on authentic flavors and ingredients
