Want a scoop of sherbet? Sure. Chocolate chip? Check. Vanilla? Very good choice. Plus you can sample some of McGraw’s more innovative flavors as well. Recently, we had the chance to try the black raspberry-coffee twist that instantly became a new favorite.

In addition, McGraw had whipped up one of the best ginger ice creams you’ll ever taste – and considering how rare it is to find ginger ice cream on the SouthCoast these days, that’s pretty exciting stuff.

What makes it even more interesting is that McGraw said he’s never actually tasted ginger ice cream before; he just whipped up a batch based on what he thought it should taste like, and he nailed it.
