Lochmead Farms Peach With Blueberry Swirl Sherbet
What it is
This is a frozen dessert made with fruit flavors. It has a base of peach sherbet with streaks of blueberry swirled throughout. Sherbet is typically made with fruit juice, sugar, and water, and often contains a small amount of dairy, like milk or cream, which gives it a lighter texture than ice cream. The blueberry swirl adds a contrasting color and flavor to the peach.

It also works well as a refreshing accompaniment to other desserts, cutting through richness with its fruity tang.
