Ice cream is a summer staple that has been enjoyed for generations. However, sometimes just using the same term over and over again can get a bit boring. So, here are five fun synonyms for the beloved treat: frozen dessert, frozen treat, gelato, sorbet, and soft serve. Additionally, every country has its unique terms for ice cream-like treats. In Mexico, there is a frozen snack called paleta, while in India, kulfi is a denser and creamier version of ice cream. In Thailand, coconut milk-based ice cream is known as "I tim kati." Whether you choose to stick with the classic or try something new, there's no denying the joy that a creamy, frozen treat brings.
