Juicy NZ is an ice cream shop on State Highway 16 at Dairy Flat in Rodney, north of Auckland, and carries a 4.7 Google rating.
New Zealand's roadside ice cream shops sit in a tradition of their own: the real fruit ice cream, made by feeding frozen strawberries, boysenberries or banana through a churn with vanilla soft serve until it turns thick and berry-flecked. Ice cream shops along rural highways live and die by their cabinet, so the good ones rotate flavours with the seasons and keep the classics — hokey pokey above all — in steady supply. The tell of a good one is a churn running non-stop on a summer Saturday, since high turnover means everything in the cabinet is fresh.
For drivers on State Highway 16, Juicy NZ is a well-rated reason to pull over at Dairy Flat.
