It blends very well with any type of ice cream, So you should try it. You can easily store it in deep freezer and use accordingly. It has very good aroma with mild taste. You should never mix vanilla with strawberry. Because vanilla will subtract the taste of strawberry and it will give only the taste of vanilla. So strawberry should mix always with plain ice cream or plain ice cream base only. This is same for black berry, blue berry and other berries. Never mix vanilla ice cream or vanilla flavor with any berry.
Mango
Mango is a juicy and very sweet fruit. There are various types of mangoes such as Safadi, Langra, Alphonso, Dusshera etc. The recommended type of mango is Alphonso. You just choose farm and soft type of alphonso mango. Never mix pulpy type of mango because it doesn’t give any good taste, it just adds sugar to ice cream. You can mix vanilla with mango, it will give very good taste. There is a problem while mixing with ice cream; some mangoes cannot be so sweet , it may affect the taste of ice cream. So we recommend to peal 5-10 mangoes at once, you can use its pulp to mix it with ice cream. This will be the average of the taste of mangoes, and you will get a good taste. If you are using mango in home ice cream, you should always taste it before using.
