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.

Also on the cover Discover new local brews at the Keep New Hampshire Brewing Festival (page 30). Enjoy live music, blueberry picking and a Southern-style barbecue at Grounding Stone Farm in Contoocook (page 31). And we get a second helping of John Fladd with his recipe for coffee ice iced coffee (page 33).
