    You don't have to be lactose intolerant to appreciate the goat milk soft serve. They cycle through four flavors at a time, so there's always something new to try, like mastic or black walnut. Read more

    Soft-serve made with goat milk, it turns out, is a very good thing. At Victory Garden, it gets the French Riviera treatment in flavors like rose petal and stone-ground dark chocolate. Read more

    This tiny little temple to all things goat milk makes a great iced coffee with a unique flavor. Goat milk is infused with mastic (a unique Greek resin) and cardamom before being mixed into cold brew. Read more

    This West village spot offers some of our favorite soft serve ice cream in NYC, made with goat's milk. Ask if they have Turkish ice cream, Dondurma, as well

    The salty caramel is a beautiful rendition of cajeta, and the herbal soft serve has all the flavors of herbes de provence, drying in the summer sun. Read more

    This is my absolute favorite place to get soft serve dessert-- above all froyo places. To me, the tangy goat isn't "goaty" at all, but if you are not a fan, try the caramel! So decadent!

    Absolutely delicious gelato! Made with 100% goat milk. Very unique, seasonal flavors. The s'mores with cookie crumble is divine

    Got The Queen which was an insane amount of ice cream even for me and I'm a pig. A little on the pricey side and not as good as Big Gay Ice Cream Shoppe but much shorter lines & a nice change of pace

    All the soft serve here is goat's milk-based. Try the Salted Caramel or Chocolate Mastic for something sweeter, or go for the original Tangy Goat Milk for a lighter flavor.

    Trust us, you’ll fall head over heels for their goat milk soft serve ice cream – the Tangy Goat Milk is simply perfect, and the Salted Caramel is to die for.

    Salted caramel and tangy goat milk are great for a first comer. Be sure to come back and try their daily/weekly special flavors such as rosemary.

    You really only get one chance to vote yay or nay on something like tangy goat milk ice cream, luckily our first taste of it was here and now we can't get enough. It's even better paired with honey.

    If you were wondering whether they do goat petting tours at their upstate farm, the answer is no. But the goat yogurt is delicious. And the tangy goat ice cream too.

    The goat products on the left are really nice for housewarming presents. Still, the soft serve here is really the star. I have to resist going basically every day.

    The midsummer night's dream sundae (tangy goat milk) is so good! Love the bay leaf black currant sauce. It can feed ~2-3.

    Heavens! Tangy goat for the win. Get it topped w some rose-quince sauce. Salty chocolate ain't bad either.

    You can gussy up the distinctive flavors (some with floral essences like lemon poppy and rose petal) with a myriad of seasonal toppings like honeycomb candy, pretzels and maple marshmallows.

    …we all scream for ice cream! pure bliss is a mere brainfreeze away. So whether you go classic cone or sundae-style with all the fixin’s, we won’t judge. Unless it’s frozen yogurt.

    Super delicious, thoughtful ice cream. Yet it misses the point that ice cream should be fun, like when you are a kid. Salted caramel is yum.

    The tangy goat milk might change the way you think about soft serve and all its possibilities. Drizzle some warm honey over it for absolute perfection.

    Ice creams are very tasty and always seasonal but there aren't that many choices and the advanced stuff (sundaes, toppings) are too expensive.

    Try combining a the salty/sweet caramel with the bitter chocolate ice cream, either side-by-side or in a swirl. The combination is really good.
