Homemade to us means the most pure, natural ingredients straight from a local farm, our own garden, or Michael the local coffee roaster. Most other “homemade” ice creams are made by using canned fruit mixes and packaged flavor bases.

At The Blue Pig, they wash and hull every strawberry, juice pounds of fresh ginger, hand grate cups of lemon zest, and finely toast each nut that gets put into our ice cream. The result? Pure, distinct flavors in every spoonful. I couldn’t imagine doing it any other way. All of the ice cream is made from a specialty mix of milk and cream from Hudson Valley Fresh (free from steriods/antibiotics, high fructose corn syrup, and gums).
