Notes

Variations for different flavors:

Chocolate ice cream also has 1 – 2 cans Hershey’s Syrup, depends on how strong you want the chocolate flavor to be.

For the black raspberry we add 12 ounces Smucker’s black raspberry jelly. We used to use black raspberry syrup, but it got harder to find.

The butter pecan has 1.5 quarts half and half instead,  plus 1 quart of Southern butter pecan coffee creamer, and 2 cups chopped pecans.

The French vanilla had 1.5 quarts  half and half, and 1 quart French vanilla creamer.
