The shortest pathway to get ice cream into my freezer is to get it fresh from Doc Burnstein’s factory.  Buying ice cream from the grocery store always fills me with trepidation as you never know when you will get old ice cream that has been sitting around too long and has tons of ice crystals.  I look forward to trying a variety of flavors when I go on road trips up the coast.  Doc Burnstein rotates their flavors every month so each visit is an adventure.
