Gluten Free Coconut Ice Cream with Collagen

Summer just wouldn’t be summer without ice cream or something frozen and frosty. This Gluten Free Coconut Ice Cream with Collagen feels a bit sophisticated but gives you the nostalgia of all those childhood days chasing the ice cream truck.

What makes this ice cream different is that it is dairy free, optionally refined sugar free and contains collagen – a necessary protein that is responsible for the health of your joints, bones, skin and more.
