A great way to cool off in the summer time is by surrounding your body in ice cream! Creameries make our mouths water and our hearts glad. Although there are states and family owned businesses who claim rights to the ‘best ice cream’ you’ll ever taste, ice cream is easily obtainable at home. It really isn’t as difficult as you might initially dream.
Creamed ice was unlikely to have been around long before refrigeration, however when you are the King of a great nation, it is easier to get your spoon on some frozen treats. Was the first ice cream just a ball of snow with some flavor? Did King Solomon enjoy icy drinks similar to what we call milkshakes today? It could have been Marco Polo’s return from China that introduced the concept of frozen fruit, ice, and milk. Regardless of it’s origin, creamed ice took money to make in its early days, while now can be generated in your own home.
