Name a better way to enjoy summer at home — Sundae bars are fun and easy to create, plus everyone loves them! All you need to go with your Hudsonville Ice Cream is a variety of cool dishes, cones, and colorful containers filled with a variety of your favorite toppings.

Yes, sometimes you feel obligated to get the tried and true family favorites like Mint Chocolate Chip and Triple Peanut Butter Cup, but what about the other 50+ ice cream flavors Hudsonville has to offer? Nothing like National Ice Cream month to try something new! Of course, I have a few Hudsonville Ice Cream recommendations that I’ve personally and thoroughly taste tested (for science of course).

Tip #3 Experiment with Ice cream Pairings!
Ice cream makes any dessert better (pretty sure this is a proven fact). Supporting examples: brownies, pie, cobblers, crumbles, streusel, bread pudding, tarts, baked, grilled and glazed fruits, cakes and more…I think I proved my point. Hudsonville is the perfect addition to any family’s signature desserts.
Tip #4 Create Crazy Milkshakes!
I am a sucker for a decadent vanilla or chocolate milkshake 
. Any one of these Hudsonville Ice Cream flavors make amazing milkshakes! All you have to do is add in your milk of choice, ice cream flavor, and whip until you have a thick, sweet, creamy, cold delicious mixture. A personal favorite of mine was turning the Hudsonville Strawberry Cheesecake into a blended milkshake concoction 
. You can even get a little creative and mix multiple flavors together to make the ultimate shake. There really is no wrong answer when it comes to National Ice Cream Month. Have fun and be sure to share a pic of your creation on social using #HudsonvilleIceCream.
Tip #5 Cool Off with Ice Cream Floats
Ice Cream Month is HOT. Cool down with the classic combination of ice cream and soda. A classic is of course the root beer float, but I’m all for flavor creations and like to experiment. The Creamery Blend Vanilla is perfect to mix with any of the following: orange cream soda, root beer, or black cherry cream soda. Simply scoop, pour and serve! Also, if you’re feeling frisky and are of age, mix your ice cream with a flavored spiked seltzer for an extra kick.
