January 15 - National Strawberry Ice Cream Day



Happy National Strawberry Ice Cream Day! Each year on January 15th, today celebrates one of the choicest flavors of ice cream. However, all flavors of ice cream are recognized on July 1st.
  
Strawberry ice cream is made by blending either strawberries or strawberry flavoring with eggs, cream, vanilla, and sugar. Food coloring is often used to give it the pink or light red hue.

In 1813 during 4th U.S. President James Madison’s second inauguration, strawberry ice cream was served. It’s also one of the three flavors found in Neapolitan ice cream, along with vanilla and chocolate. Other variations of strawberry ice cream include strawberry cheesecake ice cream and strawberry ripple ice cream.
  
HOW TO OBSERVE

Holidays are best celebrated with someone else, so be sure to grab a bowl or two. Invite someone to join you while you enjoy a dish of strawberry ice cream as well.  

Strawberries tend to remind us of summer, so imagine the things you’ll do when the days are warmer. National Day Calendar® has even provided a few recipes to make and share with the links below:

HISTORY

National Day Calendar® continues to pursue the origins of this frozen food holiday. While they do, they promise that there will be more ice cream days to celebrate in the days to come. 

And in between, there will be cake days...and donut days, too. Also, don’t forget the cookie days that they will most certainly sandwich their ice cream between.
