Ice Cream Flavors…

Welcome to this month’s monthly Icebreaker!

As we welcome the warmer temperatures, we’d like to ask— what’s your favorite ice cream flavor? Perhaps more than one?

I have two favorites. My number one fav is Ube, and my 2nd favorite flavor (which is also easier to find in my area) is coffee.

Please do share yours!

    Hello Everyone, Happy May to you all!

    I would say HANDS DOWN my favorite is Rocky Road but I do love myself a good cookie dough situation now and again LOL.

    Can’t wait to hear all of yours!

    Happy May everyone!

    My favorite ice cream flavor is green tea. It's pretty hard to find in the town I live in though, so I'm happy to settle for a nice, warm cup of green tea without the ice cream.

    Mint Chocolate Chip is my favorite flavor of ice cream with Chocolate being a runner-up.

    I used to like the Coffee flavor ice cream (as number three) and would get this often but haven't had it for years now. I was always curious about the fact that I liked the Coffee flavor ice cream but never liked actual coffee.

    I have a similar quirk, but with pistachios. I really like pistachio ice cream, but don't care much for the actual nuts. Although I don't despise the nuts either, it's just not a "go-to" for me.

    Mint chocolate chip has always been my number one. But the more-rare peanut butter chocolate chip (peanut butter ice cream with chocolate chips/chunks) runs a close second.

    @UserDavidC You like coffee ice cream, but don't like coffee. My wife is the opposite: she loves coffee, but doesn't like coffee ice cream. Me? I don't like coffee, and I don't like coffee ice cream! 🤣

    I love love love coffee but absolutely despise coffee ice cream. If I want to taste coffee, then I will drink a cup of coffee LOL

    For a taste treat, put two scoops of vanilla ice cream into a large coffee mug and fill it up with fresh brewed hot coffee … Yum! 😋

    OOH! I will definitely have to try that! Thanks for the idea!

    If you add several spoons of sugar to a cup of coffee, you will get a flavor similar to coffee ice cream!

    Hi all, I love home made vanilla ice cream. My family has made homemade ice cream since I was a baby but there's something about the taste and texture of homemade vanilla that makes me happy.

    I also love any Oreo ice cream, especially Oreo ice cream pie.

    My sisters and dad love coffee ice cream. I used to work at Red Robin (burger restaurant) and make my dad coffee milkshakes as well. I don't like the taste of coffee so I could never get into it.

     I love home made vanilla ice cream.

    Well, if we're going home made, then it's hard to beat a deep, rich dark chocolate — more like gelato. 😛

    My favorite commonly available flavor is mint chocolate chip, with black cherry a close second. Moose tracks is also pretty good.

    The best ice cream I ever had was boysenberry with dark chocolate chips, but I only saw that in the stores briefly one summer then it was gone.

    Vanilla, Chocolate Chip, Coffee, Mint Chocolate Chip and Neapolitan are my 5 favorites. Neapolitan is a tribute to my Mom, who absolutely loved ice cream and always had multiple flavors in the freezer. BTW Mom lived to be 100, perhaps ice cream is actually good for you!

    My dad used to do that! Thanks for unlocking that memory, I completely forgot about it. I'll have to try it now that I'm an adult and allowed to drink coffee. 😊 He passed away when I was 8 years old so he never shared it with me since I wasn't allowed to drink coffee when he was still around.

    Long time ago, when I was a kid, saw my uncle (a mail man, yes, we called them that back then) walking with his mailbag on his route by my house. He was chewing tobacco, spiting it out as needed. I thought that was cool, as usual for about a 7 yr. old kid. I asked him for a chew. He laughed, said better not, your folks might not like that. Best thing for you to do is go to store, buy you some licorice. Then you can chew and spit like a man all you want. I did, and boy did it taste good. I was chewing and spitting up a storm 🤣 Later on Dairy Queen in late 1950's or 1960's came out with something like 'about' 101 flavors of milk shakes, anyone remember that? One of flavors was (you guessed it) LICORICE! Boy did I go for that! Haven't found any Licorice Ice Cream yet though, wonder why 🤔😂

    @Palace Our 3yr Shih Tsu has a nickname that's similar to your favorite flavor … Lick-er-ish … because he is.
