Fig Lovers, Did You know This Beirut Spot Makes Fig Ice Cream?

Do you enjoy eating figs in a Lebanese way or in a Sylvia Plath way? Regardless, this gelato shop in Beirut is turning seasonal figs into an ice cream flavor, and we think it’s worth a try.

For those who love fig season, Guilt Free Gelato decided its time to serve up fig ice cream at DUNES in Verdun. We’ve had bouza 3a koussa, gardenia, sobbeir, maté, halewet el jibn, daoukiye, kibbe nayye…the list of bizarre ice cream flavors goes on, and yet no one thought of making fig ice cream?

The fig flavor comes as a sorbet, with no added sugar. Instead, it gets its sweetness from the figs themselves. A sprinkle of walnuts and oak honey adds a little crunch and extra richness to the mix. Like the other options at Guilt Free Gelato, it’s also lactose- and gluten-free.

Just keep in mind that this is a seasonal delight, so it won’t be around forever.

What makes Guilt Free Gelato special?
