When warmer weather approaches, you want to be prepared with a healthy assortment of summer ice cream options to keep you cool and comfortable. Back in the day, there were only a handful of varieties of ice cream and they largely looked the same. These days however, the world of ice cream has expanded to include all kinds of unconventional forms, flavor profiles and ingredients.
With all the information available on the Internet, it's easier than ever to create your own summer ice cream masterpieces at home, and tailor them to dietary restrictions and so on. Tired of conventional ice cream? Maybe opt for one with exotic ingredients like sheep or water buffalo milk.
Summer ice cream recipes have also evolved to take the form of seemingly unrelated kinds of food such as burgers and burritos. So whether you're in the market for a humble scoop of classic chocolate ice cream or are looking to create a sheep's milk ice cream burrito with frozen cookie toppings, you're guaranteed to find something that satisfies your ice cream craving.
