If we’re all being honest with ourselves, ice cream is an essential part of life. Imagine a warm summer night without savoring a bowl for dessert? It just doesn’t add up. Enjoying a banana split after a major accomplishment, adding a scoop to warm pie, or taking a spoon to a pint while standing in the chill of the freezer: they’re all magical moments. But if you don’t feel like dishing out top dollar at the local artisan ice cream shop or watching your ice cream melt on the drive home from the store, why not make it at home?
Adding an ice cream maker to your collection of kitchen appliances will never, ever disappoint. Making ice cream at home gives you unlimited flavor possibilities while also nailing any dietary restrictions. Go dairy-free, gluten-free, and nut-free while making your own personal flavor creations to the exact level of sweetness you prefer.
We absolutely love the Ninja Swirl (and the Ninja Creami, too). Mashable Shopping Reporter Samantha Mangino’s review of the Ninja Swirl awarded it a prestigious Mashable Choice honor. “There’s nothing I love more than leaving the house on a late summer evening to indulge in a cone of soft serve. It’s something you can’t get at home, unlike a pint of ice cream you buy at the grocery store. But now, with the Ninja Swirl, I don’t have to leave the house for soft serve,” said Mangino in her review.
That said, we don’t love the price, and the best Ninja Swirl alternatives offer a more affordable way to get your homemade ice cream fix.
