John Fladd (who took the photo at right and on the cover) isn’t just Hippo’s resident cocktail guy, he’s also a long-time home ice cream maker. He discusses technique (you don’t have to have an ice cream machine to make your own ice cream) and flavor (bourbon in your chocolate?) in this cool and creamy look at making ice cream at home. Meanwhile, Matt Ingersoll gives us a peek at how the pros make their scoops.
