A Tropical Getaway in Every Bite<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One lick of San Bernardo\u2019s creamy Loco4Coco\u00ae ice cream and I\u2019m back on my lounge chair under a canopy of palm trees, breeze in my hair, salt water on my skin, ready for my next Caribbean adventure.  That\u2019s the best part about flavor done right \u2013 it\u2019s a full body experience that nourishes the soul and brings back your most cherished of memories. This ice cream is extra special because it\u2019s not only rich and creamy, but flakes of coconut texture add the impression that I\u2019m eating an actual coconut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tropical Flavors Just Hit Different<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s no surprise tropical ice cream flavors are fan favorites \u2013 their vibrant hues, refreshing flavors and associations with exotic, sunny destinations exude pure happiness. They are often the perfect complement to a meal as a side dish, palette cleanser, cocktail or dessert fusion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

San Bernardo\u2019s range of super premium flavors including Cactus Pearfection\u00ae, Guanaban-ahhh\u00ae, Mamey Magic\u00ae, Loco4Coco\u00ae, Guava Have It\u00ae and Mango Fiesta\u00ae have been used to liven up many a meal.  Each one offers a bold, bright flavor that\u2019s as delightful as it is unexpected. The selection of sorbets including Lemon, Mango, Passion Fruit, Pineapple and Watermelon are equally refreshing and delicious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elevate Your Dining Experience With Ice Cream<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s no reason to make ice cream an afterthought or a separate event; there are so many fun, creative ways to wrap it into a meal so that it elevates the dining experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ice Cream Cocktail<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best beginning to a vacation-inspired evening would no doubt include a Cactus Crutch which has such a brilliant purple-pink color it\u2019s equal parts fashion accessory and cocktail.  The Cactus Pearfection ice cream in this concoction is blended with Tequila Blanco and lime for a cheery, delicious, out of this world cocktail.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re more in the mood for a mocktail The Dragon Mango Tango pairs San Bernardo\u2019s Mango Sherbet with a mango lemonade and a dragon fruit sugar rim. It\u2019s sunny and refreshing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Powerful Palate Cleanser<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s nothing I appreciate more than when a high-end restaurant serves a palette cleanser in between courses.  A refreshing sorbet or tropical ice cream nicely resets the taste buds for a new experience.  Personally, I like the way a light and zesty lemon sorbet works.  The initial sharpness in flavor overpowers any previous tastes but doesn\u2019t linger too long so as to leave you ready for whatever comes next. For a slightly richer experience a coconut like the San Bernardo Loco4Coco ice cream works nicely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Perfect Ending<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of my absolute favorite warm weather desserts is Mango Fiesta ice cream served over sticky rice with a drizzle of coconut milk syrup over top.   It\u2019s the ideal Thai-inspired afternoon snack or the perfect end to a summer evening out – not too heavy and filled with refreshing flavors.  The combination of the subtly sweet and chewy rice with the burst of mango flavor that melts in your mouth is heavenly. It’s hard for me to stop at one serving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
