You scream, I scream, we all scream for ice cream.! I admit, I love ice cream as much as the next person but my favorite flavor of ice cream is created by a small artisan ice cream shop just off of the university. It's a small shop that has all sorts of flavors. One time, they offered asparagus ice cream (it didn't appeal to me) and another time a sesame almond which was quite good. Some flavors use locally produced lagers and ales but I've never tried these.
My most favorite type of ice cream is the wonderfully delicious Ginger Showers. Its vanilla ice cream with chocolate sprinkles and minced candied ginger mixed so its evenly spread through out the mixture. Each bite fills your mouth with a spicy sweet taste. It is not made very often but when it is available, I buy a couple pints to take home.
Now for the 15 most popular flavors of ice cream!
1. Vanilla
2. Chocolate
3. Butter Pecan
4. Strawberry

10. Praline Pecan
11. Cherry

14. Rocky Road
15. Chocolate Marshmallow.
This comes from the International Ice Cream Association in Washington, DC.
It really doesn't matter if you favorite flavor is on the list. What matters is that we enjoy the delicious treat is fantastic on a hot summer day. I love trying to lick all the drips off the cone before it gets soft and the whole mess threatens to fall off. I will always have great memories associated with summer and ice cream.
All 15 are to die for!!

Its a local flavor in Fairbanks, Alaska and I love it. Unfortunately, its one of those rotating flavors. I am glad you were tempted.
