Azucar Ice Cream Company, Miami
The Miami sun can be pretty brutal at times, and ice cream is probably one of the best ways to cool yourself down. And when the call of your sweet tooth proves too strong for taking in the sights and sounds of Little Havana, take a stroll down Calle Ocho to quell it at Azucar Ice Cream Company. This parlor is a serious ode to the neighborhood and is Little Havana's—and arguably Miami's too—most famous outlet for ice cream. Distinctly marked on the outside by a massive plastic ice cream cone facade, you can’t miss it.
Azucar serves more than 100 signature and classic flavors – from chocolate to passion fruit to mamey. Their Mantecado (Cuban vanilla) ice cream is almost custardy and ultra-silky, but it is Abuela Maria, the trademarked flan ice cream concoction with heaps of Cuban rum, crispy galletas, vanilla base mixed with guava and cream cheese, that really takes the cake.
Why You Should Visit:
With a rotating board of fresh ice creams made daily, Azucar is an ultimate spot in Little Havana to go and treat yourself to all sorts of irresistible, only-in-Miami ice cream flavors, especially if you're on board with their use of cinnamon.
