National Ice Cream Day: A Sweet Celebration

The History of National Ice Cream Day

National Ice Cream Day is a relatively new holiday, having only been established in 1984 by President Ronald Reagan. However, the history of ice cream goes back much further. The earliest known ice cream-like dessert was created in ancient China around 200 BC. This dessert was made from a mixture of snow, ice, and fruit juices.

Ice cream was introduced to Europe in the 16th century by Italian explorer Marco Polo. He brought back a recipe for a frozen dessert that was very similar to modern ice cream. The popularity of ice cream quickly spread throughout Europe, and by the 18th century, it was being enjoyed by people all over the world.
