3 scoops, one standard (vanilla, chocolate, yoghurt), one local/in season (strawberry, cherry, asparagus), one speciality of the house.

Ice cream needs to be freshly made. it doesn't store longer because it's frozen.

prefab ice cream is a scam, it's stuffed with all sorts of garbage that keeps it smooth but ruins taste. And there's nothing "premium" about the "premium prefab".

Premium ice cream is made with premium milk - that's milk from May (lowlands, near the oceans) to July (mountains), when biodiversity is at its highest, northern hemisphere of course. Combined with flavours that peak near premium milk season. You want unrefined cane sugar, strawberries grown in actual soil, independent chocolate farmers (even though big corps like Valhrona or Callebaut buy any farmland they want, aka the best there is, but fuck 'em) and Tahaa vanilla (which isn't actual vanilla, it's way better).

The most important ingredient is your milk. That's 90% of your ice cream. Just as water is the most important ingredient in beer. Premium beer is made with premium water.
