WILD SCOOPS

You can have a craving for ice cream all year round, even in Alaska. The proof is in the pudding at this ice cream shop in Anchorage, known for its artisanal ice creams and sorbets. If you're looking for something other than the classic vanilla-strawberry, they're particularly fond of ice cream made with local wild berries, like blueberry-basil, or any other convoluted combination of sweetness. You can opt for the sampler flight, which combines 4 small pots of different flavors to test, or of course the (fairly large) individual pots and cones and sticks.
