Old Fashioned Teaberry Ice Cream Was Hidden in Plain Sight
For weeks, I chased a flavor I remembered.
Not the modern version. Not an imitation. The real old fashioned Pennsylvania teaberry ice cream so many of us grew up with.
I dug through old cookbooks, family recipes, and forgotten notes. Then I found it, tucked inside the pages of a cookbook that had clearly been loved for generations.
The missing ingredient?
Old fashioned pink teaberry lozenges.
I rushed over to Heimbach’s Country Store, picked some up, melted them down, and blended them into our base.
The moment it came out of the machine, I knew.
This was it. The flavor that connects so many Pennsylvanians to childhood, family gatherings, and simpler times.
Old Fashioned Pennsylvania Teaberry Ice Cream will be in the dipping cabinet tomorrow. June 18.
