A waffle cone combines two meals that occur at opposite ends of the day, thus representing the closest mankind has come to actual time travel. Traverse the tastier dimensions with today’s Groupon: for $4, you get $8 worth of frozen treats at Reno’s Ice Cream & Water Ice, located in the Pike Creek Shopping Center.

Reno’s churns out 16 tongue-numbingly crisp flavors of hand-dipped ice cream and eight kinds of water ice on site, all derived from homemade recipes and fresh ingredients. Initiate a head-on charge toward summer with a hefty hand-dipped cone ($2.50–$5.75) of cake-batter ice cream, which condenses an entire baked good into silky scoops, or finally earn the badge for most consecutive brain freezes with a helping of thin-mint ice cream. Cherry-flavored water ice tickles taste buds, vying with other tropical variations such as lemon, blue raspberry, and mango ($1.50–$3.50) for tongues' attention, whereas an Arctic Swirly speckles soft ice cream with candy shrapnel ($3.50–$5.50). Reno’s also stocks its frosty arsenal with gelati, milkshakes, and soft serve with optional dip toppings ($2.75–$3.75) and is open until 9 p.m. Sunday–Thursday and 10 p.m. Friday–Saturday, presumably to head off the emergence of a second sun.
