When family and friends come to Ithaca, there are a few staples we always visit. There is the campus tour, the gorges, the Farmer’s Market, the parks and the restaurants. But then there’s Purity Ice Cream. Purity has been churning out its own ice cream in this shop for over 70 years. They have a lot of unique flavors like Finger Lakes Tourist & Moose Tracks. But do yourself a favor and order one of their three flavors with shavings of bittersweet chocolate. (Bittersweet, Chocolate Bittersweet or Mint Chip). Although Rachel votes for Madigan Mint.
This blog is starting to sound like a Lonely Planet tour guide.

I second the Bittersweet choice. It’s my favorite ice cream hands down.
