Strawberry ice cream is a flavor of ice cream made with strawberry or strawberry flavoring. It is made by blending in fresh strawberries or strawberry flavoring with the eggs, cream, vanilla, and sugar used to make ice cream.[1][2] Most strawberry ice cream is colored pink or light red. Strawberry ice cream dates back at least to 1813, when it was served at the second inauguration of James Madison.[3] Along with vanilla and chocolate ice cream, strawberry is one of the three flavors in Neapolitan ice cream. Variations of strawberry ice cream include strawberry cheesecake ice cream and strawberry ripple ice cream, which is vanilla ice cream with a ribbon of strawberry jam or syrup. Some ice cream sandwiches are prepared neapolitan-style, and include strawberry ice cream.[citation needed] According to a poll among American adults from July 13–18 of 2022, 43 percent of respondents stated that they enjoy strawberry ice cream while 6 percent stated that strawberry ice cream was their favorite flavor of ice cream.[4] National Strawberry Ice Cream day is celebrated every year on January 15.
