Pokey O's Ice Cream Taco

If you had to rate Summer in Dallas on a 1-to-hot scale, it would be a "Kate Upton drinking Sriracha". To help you deal with its serious hotness, we've gathered five of Dallas's finest frozen edibles, from coffee crunch ice cream to adult shakes.

Coffee crunch ice cream from Carnival Barker's

The best part of waking up is Folgers in your cup. And also ice cream with dark chocolate chunks and coffee grounds in it.

Adult custard shake at Twisted Root Burger Co

Oh this? It's just a custard shake. That they'll add any of three alcohols to (creme de menthe, amaretto, or Baileys).

Frozen booze pops from The Quarter Bar

These are pretty much what they sound like, and they're a great way to stay cool while still getting some alcohol into your bloodstream.

Jalapeno ice cream from FnG Eats

It seems crazy to call ice cream high tech, but what else would you call ice cream wherein the capsaicin from jalapenos is infused into bacon fat so it can actually be mixed in with the cream before it's frozen?

Ice cream taco from Pokey O's
