Before you leave: Try some of the matcha motchi topping, a green tea rice cake that reminds us of gummy bears.

Why we like it: Miso ice cream. Actually, it’s a soft serve made with soy milk -- so it’s vegan and a great choice for the lactose intolerant.
The Miso flavor is a little earthy and subtly salty. It’s a mild but addictive treat and we can’t wait to get more.

NYC Icy This much-loved shop has popped up in the East Village for a limited time. We loved the Lemon Basil -- so refreshing on a hot day.
Rita’s Water Ices You don’t have to go to Pennsylvania any more to get your Rita’s fix. A store opened on the Upper West Side, selling flavors including Swedish Fish and Fudge Brownie.
The Lemon Ice King of Corona This one is way out in Queens, but worth the trip. Pieces of real fruit in your ice cup for only $1.50.
