December 21 marks the winter solstice, the shortest day and the longest night of the year. While the darkness may seem endless, Salt & Straw is here to bring the light.
In honor of the day, all Salt & Straw locations are giving out two scoops for the price of one, officially making it the sweetest time of the year. Visit the West Village (360 Amsterdam Avenue) or Upper West Side (540 Hudson Street) location and order the shop's classics like the Double Fold Vanilla, Sea Salt with Caramel Ribbons or Honey Lavender. But if you need extra cheer, the limited-edition Holiday Series is here to bring it, with Toasted White Chocolate & Peppermint Almond and the Gingerbread Cookie Dough which uses the owner's grandmother's gingerbread cookies recipe. Meanwhile, Dwanta’s Teremana Spiked Eggnog is the boozy eggnog you've been looking for, with a few glugs of Teremana tequila from Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, amontillado sherry, nutmeg and dark agave folded right in.
