Dairy Godmother Reopens Following Winter Break

The Dairy Godmother reopens on Wednesday, just in time for Valentine’s Day, following its annual winter hiatus.

Del Ray’s famous frozen custard shop, located at 2310 Mount Vernon Ave., will be open from noon to 10 p.m. Wednesday. The flavor of the day is “French Kiss,” which is chocolate custard with pieces of French meringue. Chocolate and vanilla custard are also available with a variety of toppings. Check out February’s flavor forecast on the shop’s website.

Special Valentine's Day sorbet falvors will be available starting Wednesday, including champagne, rose pedal, passion fruit (wink, wink) and raspberry. Ice pops on the menu include blood orange, pomegranate, guava and rose vanilla.

Be sure to keep up with owner Liz Davis on the shop’s Facebook and Twitter account, especially if you’re looking for a recap of the Westminster Kennel Club dog show.
