Trips to local ice cream stands and shops are the backbone of hot NEPA summers. All season long, we’re lining up for a tasty, chilly twist or scoop. As more people embrace plant-based lifestyles and seek healthier alternatives, the demand for vegan and non-dairy ice cream has skyrocketed.

Thanks to dairy alternatives like almond milk, oat milk, and soy, many of NEPA’s ice cream joints now offer options for health-conscious consumers and those with dietary restrictions. Whether you’re meeting up with friends, ending a date night on a sweet note, or celebrating a big win with your team, vegan ice cream is never too far away when it’s needed.

Check out our list of NEPA ice cream shops offering non-dairy alternatives.
