With Wendy’s releasing its Pumpkin Spice Frosty in September, pumpkin spice ice cream has been all the rage this season. And sure, you can grab it at the drive-thru or the supermarket, but NoVA’s ice cream shops also serve the frozen fall treat daily. Here are some of the ice cream shops where you can find it.
Jake’s Ice Cream
Can’t get enough pumpkin spice lattes? Now you can enjoy your favorite fall drink in the form of an ice cream scoop. You can also find a pumpkin pie cheesecake flavor in the case, with a pumpkin pie flavor coming soon. The gluten-free ice cream can be enjoyed in a cone, bowl, milkshake, or sundae. 6353 Columbia Pk., Falls Church
Lil City Creamery
Pumpkin spice is good, but if you’re looking to add something a little to your cone, ask for Lil City Creamery’s pumpkin pecan flavor. Made fresh from the milk of its pampered cows, you’re ensured you’ll get a fresh no matter when you step in the quirky shop. 114 W. Broad St., Falls Church
