Our Take: One of the most popular spots in the city on a hot day, Hansen’s is a New Orleans fixture. Hansen’s is a seasonal spot so check hours. Besides the “regular” flavors, Hansen’s offers such exotic combinations as Cream of Almond, Cream of Nectar, Anise, and Ginger Cayenne. “Fancy Flavors” include Cardamom, Hibiscus, and Watermelon. Nothing better when the humidity climbs!
