Ice cream is one of the most popular summer desserts. We can choose from hundreds of different flavors. Unfortunately, the ingredients of store-bought ice creams leave much to be desired. It turns out that the best ones can be made at home. You only need 5 ingredients.
We reach for chilled drinks or ice cream when it's scorching outside. In summer, we eat them in huge quantities. In cafes and shops, you can find classic ice creams as well as sorbets, natural, and artisanal products.
Nowadays, buying a large container of ice cream is quite an expense, as the price for a large container starts at $5 and can go up to even $7. If you don't want to spend that much money, make them at home. You don't need any special equipment or fancy ingredients.
