Purple Door Ice Cream

Hands-down the BEST ice cream in Milwaukee.

Just in case you don't know, Purple Door Ice Cream it's located in the Walker's Point neighborhood in the Clock Shadow Building.  Pints of their ice cream can also be purchased at the Milwaukee Public Market and a number of grocers around the city.

Plus it's local!
Local food builds community. When you buy direct from a local farmer or producer, you are re-establishing a time-honored connection between the eater and the creator/grower.  For every $1.00 you spend at a local business, more than 68 cents remains in that community. This is comparative to 43 cents if you shopped at a national chain.  Local businesses are owned by people who live in the community, are less likely to leave the community, and are more invested in the community's future.

So go on!  Treat yourself to some Purple Door Ice Cream!
