If you like the idea of pumpkin pie in a cup, look no further. This cool, thick treat is made with roughly five scoops of Dave’s pumpkin ice cream and tastes exactly like you’d imagine.

Pumpkin cheesecake shake, Il Gelato

For variations of the traditional pumpkin flavor, try Il Gelato’s pumpkin cheesecake shake, or pumpkin stracciatella, which is basically pumpkin chocolate chip. Other seasonal gelato flavors that can be whipped into creamy shakes include pumpkin spice and apple strudel.
