During my abroad days, I have had my fair share with Gelato. It didn't matter if the gelato was in its birthplace, Italy, or other places in Europe like Vienna or Budapest. Gelato in a cup, in a cone, gelato made like a flavor, mini gelato, you name it. I think Gelato is the best kind of ice cream. And out of all the different kinds of gelato, I like the fruity flavors more.
No. 1: Lemon
Nothing is better than a scoop of lemon flavored Gelato in the summer time. Lemon Gelato is one of the classic Italian flavors. Its sweetness and tartness is very refreshing. There are other kinds of lemon gelato. I've eaten basil lemon flavored gelato before and it was so worth trying.
No. 2: Mango
Okay, okay! You got to hear me out here! I know this is probably not the flavor that pops up in your mind when you think about gelato but it is really tasty. I promise you, you won’t be disappointed unless you don’t like mango of course. It is like eating mango but cold and creamy. It is the perfect harmony of mango and ice cream.
No. 3: Chocolate Hazelnut
I know that my kind of flavors are fruity flavors, but who can resist chocolate hazelnut. It is one of the oldest gelato flavors. It is creamy and delicious. It tastes like Nutella but a hundred times better.
No. 4: Tangerine
I don’t know if they are popular but I had tangerine flavored gelato once and it blew my mind. The flavor is nice and citrusy like lemon but a lot milder. It is a very soft flavor with the tangerine fragrance. It is a very gentle flavor that soothes all the anxieties that hot weather brings.
No. 5 yogurt
This is not the frozen yogurt we are used to eating in the US. It is tangy yogurt. The texture is very creamy and milky. It is a very novel flavor that is worth exploring.
