Refreshing Ice Creams
8 Jul 2011, 11:01 am

While touring Italy, my daily treat for walking miles and miles, was a scoop of cold and creamy gelato. They seemed to sell it on every corner. As soon as I got home I had to make a different flavor daily. Of all of the treats out there, I believe these cold treats are my greatest weakness. Cold, creamy, deliciously sweet are just a few of the adjectives that are used to describe ice cream. Typically, ice cream is made with cream. Gelato is typically made with milk and so is sherbet. Sorbets aren't usually made with any dairy at all. It truly doesn't matter what they're made with, I love them all!

1. Creamy Strawberry Gelato

I'll confess this is not a traditional Italian Gelato recipe, but it's not technically an ice cream either. It doesn't have any real cream in it to make it an ice cream. Gelatos are typically made with whole milk, which this recipe does have. Rarely does Gelato have sweetened condensed milk in it either.

2. Coconut Ice Cream

This recipe for Coconut Ice Cream is extremely creamy. Not only does it have tons of coconut in it, but the coconut flavor is boosted by the addition of cream of coconut.

3. Fresh Peach Ice Cream

Believe it or not, you still get a big pistachio flavor without the nuts. I added mine back in because we love nuts. Either way, I'm sure you'll love this Pistachio Gelato, too.
