Coffee Break: National Ice Cream Month
by Jill Riley and Nilufer Arsala
July 23, 2025

We couldn’t let July get away without mentioning that IT IS NATIONAL ICE CREAM MONTH!!! The celebration was made official by President Ronald Reagan in 1984, and ice cream lovers have rejoiced ever since. (Like we needed another reason to enjoy the sweet treat, lol.)
You can participate in the special month by making ice cream at home, putting together an ice cream social for friends, and even though the most popular flavor is still vanilla, you can branch out and try something new. Today, let’s celebrate all things ice cream with music!
So for today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs relating to ice cream would you like to hear?
