JP Licks Restaurant Review

This cow-themed ice cream parlor scoops up fun seasonal flavors. The chain has locations scattered all around town, attracting camp-loving scenesters as well as kids with its wide array of premium ice cream and frozen yogurt. In the summer, you can try unique flavors such as cucumber, El Diablo (with cinnamon, chocolate and cayenne pepper) and wasabi; in cooler months, Wild Turkey and eggnog...

A customer favorite is the Cherry Garciaparra ice cream, a direct imitation of the Ben & Jerry's classic flavor named after the Red Sox star shortstop
