Local Ice Cream Hot Spot Makes Explore Minnesota List of Must Visit Places

(KNSI) — Ice cream! It’s wonderful on a summer afternoon in June!

Explore Minnesota compiled a list of some must-visit spots to grab a cone or a dish, one of which is in St. Cloud.

Mr. Twisty was named one of the best places in the state to grab a treat and cool off. It has a walk-up location in St. Cloud and a spot at Pinecone Central Park in Sartell. They also have a truck to bring the party to you, and they set up camp at Summertime by George. Mr. Twisty dishes up soft serve, Italian ice with rotating flavors, twisters, malts, shakes, and food.
