Ice-cream made from Brown Rice?

When you think about what goes into ice-cream, what do you think of? Most likely milk, cream and eggs right? Well, same here so I was real surprised to hear about ice-cream made from brown rice! More specifically organic brown rice milk! This makes it suitable to be consumed by vegetarians, vegans and those who are lactose-intolerant. Furthermore, all natural ingredients are used with no added chemicals or preservatives! Did I also mention that the ice-cream is low in fat since it’s not made with dairy products? For those who have been forgoing ice-cream to watch your weight, you now have a low-fat alternative other than yoghurt! Yes, even for flavours like French Chocolate, Hazelnut Chocolate, Peanut Butter Caramel! Mmmm…!

They currently have two outlets and I went to the one at China Square Central near to my office. It’s located at the basement near to Cold Storage. All the ice-cream goodness is found in a cute baby blue ice-cream cart just outside a shop called Lin’s Smoodees. The staff was real friendly and let me sample many different flavours! At $3.80 for two scoops, it was a steal!

I finally decided on the best seller Peanut Butter Caramel and Hazelnut Chocolate and both tasted so good! Not overly sweet but just right!

Looking forward to trying other flavours like Banana Oats, Green Tea, Chendol, Tropicana, Ginger Tea Sorbet and more! And did I mention Brownice Ice Cream is made in Singapore and is a homegrown local brand? Show your support!!
