Turtle Mountain Organic Coconut Milk Ice Cream

This afternoon, as I was shopping in a Floridian health food store called Rolling Oats, I discovered this ice cream. I'm always looking for a commercial ice cream that is sugar-free, but not full of chemicals I can't pronounce. It's actually a tough search. Most of the sugar-free ice creams that are naturally sweetened don't taste so good because they're made with soy. Which is why I bought my own ice cream maker and started making my own ice cream sweetened with agave, a natural nectar from cactus that is very low on the glycemic index. Turtle Mountain specializes in dairy-free ice creams, which is likely why they developed this dairy-free, sugar-free ice cream.

I tried the simple coconut and the vanilla bean flavors. Simply amazing! The ingredients in my simple coconut ice cream are: organic coconut milk, organic agave syrup, chicory root extract, organic dried coconut, carob bean gum, guar gum, and natural flavor. The coconut milk gives the ice cream a smooth, creamy texture and the addition of dried coconut adds a nice crunch to the smoothness of the ice cream. I think I'm a fan for life... Other flavors currently available in this line of ice creams are chocolate, cookie dough, and mint chip.

Update: I tried the vanilla coconut and the chocolate. I didn't really like the vanilla coconut as much as the plain coconut, but I thought the chocolate was fantastic! The cookie dough has sugar in it, so I cannot eat it...
