Apple Cider Shake and Sparkling Float

Bottoms Up

By Lynda Wheatley | Sept. 7, 2019

Ice cream has never had an easy time suiting up for fall. Its status as a star of summertime is as old as, well … maybe rock salt. The small but always-experimenting Lake Ann Corner Cone, however, is hardly one to shy away from putting on an autumnal twist. (See what we did there?) The wee eatery's latest concoctions — an Apple Cider Sparkling Float and an Apple Cider Shake — mix the bold sweet flavor of Pure Michigan apple cider with their LegenDAIRY creamy soft serve. But be warned: Much like a Northern Michigan fall, these treats are fleeting. They’ll last only as long as the cider supply does, and the shop’s curbside screen window locks up for the year at September’s end. Until then, make a date to try a taste between 3pm and 9pm Tuesdays through Thursdays, noon and 10pm Fridays and Saturdays, or Sundays noon to 8pm.
