Whether it is the summer season or winters, ice creams are always a delight. There are different flavors like chocolate ice cream, strawberry ice cream, mango ice cream, green tea ice cream, and many others that you can choose. Today, I will familiarize you with Vitamix Ice Cream.
As a child, I would lose my sleep over ice cream. My mother used to make the most amazing ice cream during the summer vacation with a Vitamix blender. The taste was utterly distinctive from regular ice creams and this is what I loved the most.
To make Vitamix ice cream, add milk, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, milk ice cubes into the Vitamix container. Choose variable 1 with high speed for about 30 seconds in order to attain the best possible results.
This Vitamix ice cream recipe is one of the most special recipes that I learned from my mother. Check out the full recipe below.

How Will The Vitamix Ice Cream Look And Taste Like?
For Vanilla
The Vitamix vanilla ice cream has a very ‘vanilla’ taste. It looks like a bride in white and taste like rich and delicious sweet vanilla cream. It’s sweet and if you are not fond of vanilla, you will be once you try this.
For Banana
This ice cream is so simple that you can call it a smoothie ice cream. It looks plain white and tastes like sweet bananas and happiness.
For Avocado
Up your bougie game with this avocado ice cream. It has the green tint of the avocados and you can taste it in the ice cream as well. The bananas make their presence felt in every bite. If you think there’s nothing better than avocado toast, then obviously you need to make this ASAP!
For Key Lime
The recipe for this ice cream is more complex than others. But it is healthier as well. It has limes and spinach, which sounds like a weird combination but somehow blends great. This mint green-tinted ice cream has a slightly sour kick and the essence of vanilla peeks through. The only way you’ll feel there’s spinach is when your arms will become strong like Popeye’s.
For Peach
If you love peaches, you’ll love this peachy ice cream. It is sweetened with honey so it’s delicious, peachy, and healthy. The sweet peach makes the ice cream taste sweet and a teensy bit tangy. The honey makes it decently sweet. I really love this ice cream if you can’t tell.
For Strawberry
You get two fruits in the guise of one; banana and strawberry. This ice cream is ‘berry’ tasty and healthy as well. It has no synthetic ingredients. I love its pink, rosy tint, and sweet and sour taste. This is great as comfort food for a tearful-movie-watching marathon.

The peach ice cream never comes together. Shouldn’t ice be an ingredient?
Hey there Sheila!
The ice-cream is meant to be soft serve, if you end up adding ice to it, it will end up being runny and ruin the whole thing. Make sure that you are using the right amount of ingredients. Get up soldier, give it another shot.
Happy Cooking!
