The Blue Pig

Homemade to us means the most pure, natural ingredients -- straight from a local farm, our own garden, or Michael the local coffee roaster. Most other “homemade” ice creams are made by using canned fruit mixes and packaged flavor bases. At The Blue Pig, we wash and hull every strawberry, juice pounds of fresh ginger, hand grate cups of lemon zest, and finely toast each nut that gets put into our ice cream. The result? Pure, distinct flavors in every spoonful. We couldn’t imagine doing it any other way. Your ice cream can only be as good as your milk. Ours is made from a specialty mix of milk and cream that is free from steroids, antibiotics, high fructose corn syrup, and gums. It comes from Hudson Valley Fresh, a nonprofit dairy cooperative dedicated to quality, sustainability, and local production. From pasture to dairy in 36 hours, it's the best tasting, the best for you, and the best for our local farmers. It's the only source we would ever consider for our ice cream.
