A long time ago we discovered that dairy can be used for all kinds of wonderful things, including the dynamic duo of pizza and ice cream. These two culinary icons have long been the centerpiece for parties and brought joy to countless people. So where do you find the best ice cream in Tennessee? For that, you have to look to the fabulous farm-to-cone experience at Cruze Farm. Cruze Farm Dairy knows all about this and has brought their lovely milk from the farm to make some tasty Tennessee concoctions you will not want to miss out on.

There are several locations for Cruze Farm where you can get pizza and ice cream.

Knoxville has two locations right next door to each other on Asbury Street: one for ice cream and the other for pizza. Another location is conveniently located in downtown Knoxville, while still another is in the lovely town of Morristown. There is another location found in the busy town of Sevierville. In other words, East Tennessee has plenty of places to get these fine-tasting, farm-fresh goodies!

So no matter where you find yourself on a hot summer day you are not far from some of the best ice cream in Tennessee. Trust me when I say it is worth the trip no matter where you are coming from.

What makes Cruze Farm so special is a process that takes place long before you are handed an ice cream cone.

Along the rolling pasturelands, Cruze Farm houses beautiful Jersey Cows who happily graze in the fields all day long. These cows are never fed hormones and their milk is churned and pasteurized before that key ingredient makes it into the ice cream.

Have you ever seen a Jersey Cow? I don't mean to pick favorites when it comes to our bovine friends, but they are the most adorable cows I have ever seen. There is just something loving about those big giant brown eyes, I can just imagine a sparkle and a wink as they knowing acknowledge that their milk is the best.

The results are outstanding, with a plethora of flavors and toppings to enjoy.

The ice cream menu has a standard rotation of flavors, but they also spice things up throughout the year with seasonal options and unique pairings. Whether they pour cereal as a topping, create a strawberry shortcake flavor, or simply put sprinkles on a twist, nothing on the menu will disappoint. Having different flavors just gives us a reason to go back time and time again, not that we need an excuse.

The same treatment can be found in their delicious shakes. Trade your straw for a spoon and order a Churn with classic flavors like cookies and cream, cookie dough, and much much more.

There is no wrong way to enjoy your ice cream (Except for those dirty law-breaking horse thieves, you know who you are). Lick, scoope, sip, or savory, I don't know about you but this is my favorite dessert of choice.

There is just something special and wholesome about going back to basics and seeing how our food is made. From a beloved bovine to joyful families sharing a night out and enjoying some ice cream, what a delightful farm-to-cone experience!

Ice cream is one of those celebratory treats that just embodies warm summer nights, gathering families, and laughter. To have the whole experience that this iconic dessert can give make sure you have a Cruze Farm cone in your hand.

You can have dessert first, but don't forget to get a pizza. You can order a specialty pizza or craft your own edible masterpiece with the toppings of your choice. You can taste the difference when ingredients come fresh from the farm, so make sure you stop by and partake in this cheesy goodness yourself.
