Summer is my personal excuse to try even the most surprising ice cream flavours, and this Helados La Neta Avocado Lime Ice Cream has my taste buds ready for a treat. Helados La Neta — which takes its name from the Spanish phrase "la neta," meaning "the truth" — is ice cream [1] inspired by Mexican culture and aims to bring people together with nostalgic flavours. "La Neta is a unique journey of flavour honouring Mexican roots and traditions, a celebration of the differences that enrich us as a nation, and a recognition to the strong force we all are united as just one vibrant multicultural community," the brand said in a press release.

Other flavours in the line include Mexican Vanilla, Classic Horchata, Strawberries and Cream, Chocolate and Cinnamon, Coconut Cream, and Rum Raisin. The ice cream is currently available for $7 per pint at Walmart, H-E-B, Kroger, Safeway, Shoprite, The Fresh Market, and other specialty grocery stores nationwide.
