Ice Milk

Ice milk (/aɪs mɪlk/) is a frozen dessert with less milk fat than ice cream.

Etymology

The term "ice milk" originated in the United States and is derived from the main ingredients, ice and milk.

Description

Ice milk is similar to ice cream, but with a lower milk fat content. It is made by freezing a mixture of milk, sugar, and flavorings, such as vanilla or chocolate. The mixture is churned during freezing to incorporate air and prevent ice crystals from forming. The result is a smooth, creamy dessert that is lighter and less rich than ice cream.

Nutritional Information

Ice milk is often chosen as a healthier alternative to ice cream due to its lower fat content. However, it may contain more sugar to compensate for the reduced fat. It is a good source of calcium and vitamin D, but it can also be high in calories and sugar.
