10 Delicious Homemade Vegan Ice Cream Recipes to Try This Summer

We love summer, but we really love ice cream.

Ice cream season—we mean, summer—is something everyone can enjoy. You may think this excludes vegans, but many different ice creams are made with vegan milk alternatives like almond, coconut, soy and cashew milk. While we all have our favorite store-bought ice creams, it's more fun to make your own. Here are 10 delicious vegan ice cream recipes you can make this summer and you don't even need an ice cream maker.

1. Watermelon Mint

Watermelon is in peak season during the summer, so this recipe is a perfect way to use all the available sweet fruit. This recipe has a velvety base of coconut cream with sweet watermelon and a fresh hit of mint that will keep you cool on hot days.
