The silliest poll this summer: Ice Cream!!!

Cafe Society
1

I’m going to be making ice cream tomorrow. I’ve already made mulberry, and plain vanilla.

I have two kinds in mind, and I want my fellow Dopers to decide for me. I’m lazy.

2

I just finished washing up from making a peach ice cream. I didn’t add any sugar to the fresh peach puree so it may be a bit more tart than one would expect, but I’m hoping the sugar from the base will even it all out.

3

We’re planning on making ice cream this week, and your two options are our top two contenders as well.

So … both!

4

I don’t put green in the mint, I’m about natural coloring, so until folks taste it they might not know it has the mint flavor.

5

Mint if it’s peppermint; coffee otherwise.

6

I had Mexican chocolate ice cream for the first time a few weeks ago. Chocolate + hot chiles =¡Ay, caramba, eso es helado sabrosa!

7

My favorite to make is Turtle.

8

It sounds like you might be leaning towards choc mint, but I’ll never forget the coffee ice cream I had at a roadside stand over 40 years ago (and I’m 47 now), so although I won’t get to taste your creation I vote for coffee.

Best homemade ice cream we’ve ever made was Pineapple - Basil. I know it sounds crazy, but try it.

10

Do you already have the ingredients for mint chocolate chip and coffee? Why not make coffee chocolate chip?

11

Mint chocolate coffee. :smiley:

12

Coffee chocolate chip. Mmm.

13

Hmmm, maybe I should have thought f that first.:slight_smile:

14

Chocolate!

15

I love mint ice cream, but I am often kind of annoyed that I have to have chips if I want mint. But I love coffee ice cream more. :slight_smile:

16

I voted for mint chocolate chip but now that I’ve read the responses I need to change my answer to peach.

17

I go for mint chocolate chip when I have ice cream (which is less than once a year) and there is no real peanut butter (no chocolate) or bubble gum flavors available.

18

If you want to make a small batch to experiment…

Banana Pistacio.

Throw one banana and some shelled pistacios in a blender, then throw it in some ice cream base.

Used to make it occasionally back when I had my house and made ice cream. Been a very long time since then…

19

Plum.

Can’t say I’ve ever had or even seen mulberry ice cream. Do you have a mulberry tree? We do, but we don’t make ice cream.
