There’s no denying that with summer comes the opening of countless seasonal ice cream shops, dairy shacks, and our favorite in Michigan, frozen custard spots. It’s not officially summer until you’ve indulged in a thick, creamy soft serve cones.
True, other parts of the Midwest can claim credit for the frozen custard’s early days, but that makes it no less a special treat for us here in Michigan. Here, let’s show you some of the best places around to get some frozen custard.
