Just Chill

Great alternatives to ice cream

ike all good things, frozen yogurt was invented in New England in the 1970s when H.P, Hood introduced something called Frogurt (followed in 1978 by Brigham’s, with its not-very-good “Humphreez Yogart”). It’s come a long way since then. So if something cold would taste good right now, why limit yourself to the standards? Stray from the usual filling (and high-calorie) ice cream and opt for some fro-yo or silky smooth gelato at these standout secret spots:

A low-cal fro-yo invented by two postdocs
 

Great frozen yogurt—in a vegan option, too
 

A little scoop of Italy, where you least expect it
 

Lobster gelato? Don’t knock it till you try it.
 

An endless variety of frozen yogurt flavors, including Oreo and cookie dough
