National Coffee Ice Cream Day
National Coffee Ice Cream Day is a day that blends two great foods into one: ice cream and coffee! It is believed coffee ice cream made its debut in the mid 19th century, but it was not until 1919 that a recipe for "egg coffee", consisting of cream, crushed ice, and coffee syrup, first appeared. Today's modern coffee ice cream is made by dissolving fine coffee grains in a hot ice cream base.
