When I was young, it was cream of ice cream. Or there was one stand that had red cream flavor, which was like Barq's red cream soda without the fizz. In my old age, I seem to prefer cream of ice cream which seems not quite as sweet and with a nice vanilla flavor.
Not that we get them often anymore. They aren't good for diabetics. My son informs me we didn't get a single one as a family last summer (though of course they sometimes have some at school or events). I couldn't stand to be that unkind to him this year, so we'll get at least a few.
Smoothies may be healthier, but nothing cools you from the inside out like a snowball. Although the best of watermelons served ice cold comes in second.
