Nothing says summer like a scoop or two of ice cream. Celebrate National Ice Cream Month by trying America’s favorite treat at one of these ice cream shops near your Monterrey apartment. 

Types of Ice Cream

When you think of ice cream, you most likely think of traditional ice cream which is made from frozen milk or cream and slow-churned to perfection. 

But there are many other types of ice cream from around the world! Gelato is rich and dense and churned with more air and often has eggs. Sorbet is a refreshing summer treat and is ice-based sweetened with fruit juice. Frozen Yogurt is another frozen treat that is made with yogurt instead of milk, but just as delicious. Paleterias sell fruit-flavored paletas and cream popsicles, known as paletas de crema.

No matter what your tastes are or dietary preferences, there’s an ice cream shop in Monterrey that is perfect for you!
