Beat the heat with these frosty treats that are entirely plant-based and oh-so-delicious. Nice cream is made by blending frozen chunks of banana to get a creamy, custard-like texture for a vegan equivalent of soft serve ice cream. Tons of scrumptious flavors can be built from this base by adding more ingredients such as frozen berries, spices, nuts, or cocoa powder. When you’re craving a frozen dessert that tastes decadent without being detrimental to your health, nice cream is without a doubt the way to go. Check out our recipe round up to get a jump-start on your summer nice cream fix!
