If dairy does the jig in your digestive tract or you’re trying to get away from processed sugar, I’m happy to report that Turtle Mountain has a new coconut milk-based ice cream line, sweetened with Agave syrup. I picked up a pint of the Coconut flavor, naturally, and it was divine. The frozen treat has the same smooth, creamy texture of coconut milk, without the iciness of ice cream that’s too aerated.
Whole Foods carries a selection of their five flavors: Vanilla Bean, Chocolate, Cookie Dough, Mint Chocolate Chip and Coconut; other grocery chains nationwide will pick it up later in the year. At this point I say pass on the Chocolate, it just doesn’t hold up as a dairy-free flavor, but the gluten-free Cookie Dough may just be my new favorite ice-cream. Cookie Dough chunks and brittle fudgey bits!
With a heat wave in progress, it’s a great treat!

Oh my goodness I am just loving this post. I really can not wait to try this turtle mountain stuff! I am entirely lactose intolerant and it really sucks having to take like 3 lactose pills in order to eat one bowl of ice cream. Thank for the information I really appreciate it!
