It's mostly rum essence. If they added actual rum then the alcohol would interfere with the freezing of the ice cream.

I voted mint chocolate chip

I have an obsession with green ice creams

The three flavors for me are mint with chocolate chip, matcha (green tea), and pistachio

I'm not sure about that. A solution 10% alcohol by volume (ie quite strong) freezes at 25F (-4C) which isn't that much different.

If you wanted ice-cream as strong as spirits then yeah you'd need a better freezer. Also a long hard think about where you life is going!

Häagen-Dazs makes a line of ice cream with spirits in them. As for rum-raisin, I always thought the raisin were macerated in rum, so that there would be very little real booze in them when they went into the ice cream.

The shade of blue looks dope, but IDK how it'll taste, with or without the sesame seeds.

Nestle... Dang that's like a household name.

The Nestle one looks closer to this one in color:

They aren't soaked long enough to get properly plump, you'd have to eat the same raisins by the spoonful to feel anything.

Hard to say since it depends how I feel, I have a specific company I like for strawberry, I occasionally like mint chocolate cookie, and I love ginger ice cream. Though one of my favorite is from this little shop outside DC which sells dark chocolate orange. Now that is good stuff.

I do love Chocolate, but a really good Strawberry is the best.

We had a local dairy brand here, that was based out of the North Shore (north of Lake Ponchartrain) that used locally grown strawberries for their ice cream. Sadly, that company dissolved their Ice Cream division and are sticking only to Milk nowadays. I really miss their ice cream.

I like Haagen-Dazs, and Ben and Jerry's ice cream in general, but my broke ass is too poor to be able to buy one regularly :(

Back when I could eat really traditional, really creamy ice-cream, I used to like Mackie's ice-cream. Their traditional ice cream was gorgeous and I also enjoyed their strawberry.

In my youth I used to make cannabis ice cream, not the best tasting ice cream I've ever made.

Found a really nice lemon icecream sorbet.
It is lemon ice in vodka.

I love blood orange icecream, sesame icecream, matcha,

If you fry garlic enough it gets caramelized. The taste is much milder and quite sweet, so I guess ...
