I love ice cream! Any flavor really. Hard to know what is new to someone else, but cherries pecans and cream is really good, in my humble opinion.

Butterbrickle, don't know if it is still made, and the mintflavor with chocolate chips is my favorite.

Gellato in a wide variety of flavors.

Butter Brickle or Butter Pecan Praline is sinful.

Butter pecan is my current favorite, but Trader Joe's makes one that's coffee and chocolate that is just out of this world. I can't remember the name, but it is really good.

One of the best ones we've made is a mascarpone ice cream. Also, strawberry-basil sorbet.

Edit: Sorry, just realized - do you mean to make, or to buy? if to buy, man.....ice cream is a downfall for us. Too many to list, but they all have "texture" in common - e.g., less fond of straight chocolate, etc., but chocolate with chocolate coffee beans, chunks of fudge, etc. Will say, always craved cherry with chocolate anything. Orange and chocolate is another great combo.

Far and away the best ice cream is homemade with real cream. We use goats milk and it makes the BEST ice cream. Add in whatever fresh fruit you have. We use strawberries or raspberries from the garden. Huckleberries right now and that is the best

Love all ice cream, but have been cooling off with Rainbow Sherbert this summer. Want to try a great sundae, fill a bowl with your favorite vanilla ice cream and cover it with hot chocolate pudding !

Nowadays it’s true gelato hands down.
As a kid growing up in SE Michigan the creamiest ice cream you could buy was Saunders brand.

People don't know what their missing, now I have to find a good cantaloupe !!

We recently found a place by accident, Tony's Ice Cream in Gastonia, NC. They make their own, it's an older place and busy every time we go there. Looks like they might have a nice sloppy cheeseburger too.

Home-made is always the best, I do love peach. For store bought we get Tillamook brand. Their cheeses are excellent too.

Any flavor of Blue Bell ... except that Gawd-Awful Carrot Cake ice cream ...Yuck !

Blue Bell's Peachy - Peach seasonal flavor is out , very refreshing
and a new flavor ... Java - Jolt , Coffee ice cream , Chocolate Chunks and fudge swirls ... If you like coffee and chocolate ...this one is intense !

Dr. Pepper Float is okay ... a swirl of Dr. Pepper flavored sherbet in vanilla ice cream , I ate it and it was nice but it's not on the same level as Java - Jolt or Brownie Nut Fudge .

Look for Blue Bell's Peachy Peach ... or ... Blue Bell's Peaches and Homemade Vanilla . They are seasonal , but it's peach season and one or both should be in your store , had Peachy Peach last week and have bought more this last shopping trip ... just as good as I can make it ...maybe better ... for sure easier !

Half a blender of heavy cream

Sugar if you want some, I don't
Blend it until the blender is full
Freeze in an aluminum baking pan,

Blue Bell isn't available here. On the other side of the state, but not the Western Slope. Love their Chocolate Chip and regular Chocolate too. Just have to put up with the junk they carry over here if I am desperate enough to get store bought. Local pizza/ice cream shop has just about the best Huckleberry you can get unless you are in Huckleberry country. Got some great stuff in West Yellowstone last year.
Graeters makes a Dark Chocolate Brownie ice cream----That stuff is GREAT!!!

With fear of being banned from this site, I suggest vanilla ice cream. Add a handful of busted up Oreo or Biscoff cookies and it's good. Add fresh peaches and it's great. My favorite budget vanilla is great value home style from wally mart. There is better vanilla ice cream out there if you spend 4 or 5 times the price.

I am a retired refrigeration mechanic
all trained up on softserve machines
for an ice cream suggestion
I would suggest to beware softserve,
the store doesn't really matter, it's the employees.
Softserve is a job of work, and requires training.
If the machines aren't sanitized
taken apart
top to bottom
inside and out
beater and spindles
new mix
every day
it's old sugared milk to give ya the gollywobbles.

Good softserve mix comes frozen.
We thaw tomorrows batch in the cooler.
Cheap softserve mix is a powder
mix it with hot water and cool it in the cooler.
Both ways work, but the stuff doesn't keep.

I have eaten way more than my share of free softserve
after I setup the machines.
Here is how to tell a safe store...
a teenage girl will declare the thing "Her" machine
and do setup and breakdown every day,
as she was taught, by the book,
because she cares,
because she is feeding friends and family,
because she is in it for the tips,
because she will eat her own ice cream.

Dairy Queen built a franchise around the idea.
More fun than ice machines, but not by much...

Don’t know if it’d be any good but it certainly would be something different.

For several years, my favorite was a good vanilla ice cream with 2 or 3 teaspoons of Slimfast chocolate malt powder over it. Haven seen that in years.

The wife recently purchased a yogurt-making gizmo. I have to say the plain yogurt it turns out (after an obligatory 36 hour wait) is as creamy as any high end custard. Mixed with a teaspoon of honey, or any number of different fruit preserves, I prefer it to any store bought ice cream.
