Best place to get creamed
It's tough to select the crème de la crème among the ice-cream shops in Boston - a city populated by eager
and discerning ice-cream eaters. But we're going out on a limb anyway. After all, anyone in search of the
ultimate in esoteric flavors has only one real option: Christina's Ice Cream, an Inman Square landmark.
Tired of plain vanilla? Sick of chocolate and strawberry? At Christina's, even the connoisseur will end up
dazzled by the store's array of 40 exotic taste sensations. Be a sport. Try the blood peach. If that flavor
doesn't do it for you, how about the green tea? Or the cinnamon-rice pudding? Or the ginger molasses? There's
also burnt sugar, adzuki bean, caramel and prune, lemon verbena, and tullamore dew. We could go on and on,
of course. On any given day, the crew here can be found whipping up yet another exotic homemade batch (and
some standards, too). And each confection has everything you've come to love about homemade ice cream: it's
creamy, it's packed with flavor, and it's fresh, fresh, fresh.
Christina's Ice Cream, 1255 Cambridge Street, Inman Square, Cambridge, (617) 492-7021.
