‘Today’ show’s Al Roker getting his own ice cream flavor at local Harlem shop

Here’s the scoop about Al Roker. Harlem’s Sugar Hill Creamery plans to roll out a flavor dedicated to the popular “Today” show weatherman.

Nick Larsen, who co-owns the ice cream shop with his wife, Petrushka Bazin Larsen, said the idea came to him when the couple did an interview with Roker for a show for the Peacock network.

After learning that the 68-year-old SUNY Oswego alum’s favorite desserts are cookies and cream ice cream and sweet potato pie, Sugar Hill crafted the “Your Neck of the Woods” flavor (a nod to Roker’s famous slogan). The Queens-born Roker has been delivering weather news from New York City since 1983.
