So there's a story behind why they flip the Blizzards. Samuel Temperato, the DQ franchise owner who came up with the idea for Blizzards, was inspired by the frozen treats sold by Ted Drewes, a St. Louis shop owner who termed them “concrete”. In 1959, Steve Gamber, then 14, would stop by Drewes’ Chippewa Street location for a sandwich and chocolate malt, asking Drewes to make it thicker and thicker each time. Drewes had enough and one day flipped the malt upside down to show its thickness, assuring his young customer that if it fell out, it was free. Temperato picked this up for Dairy Queen!
I never knew this and yes Ted Drewes is amazing!!! I can remember in high school they would do a Ted Drewes Day and gave it to us for free, there was practically a stampede down the hallways to get to it.
The peanut buster parfait at DQ is EVERYTHING. I've been getting it my whole life. There's just something about hot fudge in cold vanilla ice cream & then the texture crunch of the peanuts w the saltiness all together that makes it OUTSTANDING.
I had a friend send me Jeni’s ice cream as a get well gift when I had a major accident. The flavors were creative, but I didn’t feel the ice cream itself was that wonderful. If you guys want the best ice cream ever, the next time you are in NY, take a trip about 90 minutes north of NYC in Orange County to a place called Bellvale Creamery. They make ice cream from their own dairy farm. They say they are inspired by Italian gelato. Flavors are very natural. I think Alessio would approve. Also, it’s never too cold to eat ice cream!
This was awesome y’all. Maybe you can try to make homemade ice cream for a video? You could compare the kind you need special salt for and the kind you make in a machine that doesn’t need the salt. I think there’s a method of rolling a coffee can or something like that as well. You could rate it based on time it takes to make it (from putting ingredients together to frozen state), consistency, taste, cost (machine cost, ingredient cost) and overall happiness on a scale of maybe 0-5 or 0-10. Btw, hearing “the Dairy Queen Guy” recognize you and talk about how he and his wife are fans was super exciting! I can’t imagine how awesome that must feel but the gigantic smiles on your faces spoke volumes. Can’t wait to see the next video! 🤘🏻☺️💕
I remember as kids living in LI, NY. We would visit my Nonno and Nonna Ferrari in Bensonhurst in Brooklyn. My Nonno would always take us kids to Dairy Queen to get soft serve cones. (Back in the 70's). They didn't have Blizzards then on the menu.
I have a mall-style food court at my palace with loads of different chains. One of them being Dairy Queen. I like to have my Blizzards with a touch of plutonium to give me that radioactive energy needed to continue developing our program and might. Fun fact: The first DQ restaurant was in Joliet, Illinois, a suburb in Chicago. It was operated by Sherb Noble and opened on June 22, 1940
omg, that ice cube moment, and both your reactions almost had me on the floor from laughing so hard. DQ always reminds me of my childhood. Thanks for the video!
I remember when DQ didn't even sell Blizzards. Seems like they didn't come out until the mid to late 1980s, and obviously they were a success. My mom, my brother and I used to go there and one would order the dilly bar, one would order the banana split, and one would order the peanut buster parfait and we'd all share, so we could each have some of them all. They used to sell things like vanilla coke, coke (or root beer floats) and their cherry limes were amazing. Haven't been there in about 4 or 5 years now, but you guys brought back some memories for me. 👍
Loved this one! DQ is nostalgic, more than anything. Everyone loves Blizzards. I'd love to see an Italian junk food video. What's the Italian equivalent of a Little Debbie snack cake? 😂
Uuuuggghhh !!! I dont think anybody makes that garbage besides Little Debbie's. It's just sugar with a pretty tasteless cake; the fast way to diabetes !
You two are so funny! Soooo, our first year going to Italia we stopped in and got some gelato near the Spanish Steps. My husband and I both ordered one scoop each and each came with a small cookie. They charged us 25€!!!!! I don’t even remember what we ordered but I do remember the bill. It took us a long time to ever try gelato again. The next time it was in Florence and I believe we paid maybe 6€. Much better experience !
I've never had a Blizzard from Dairy Queen. As a kid, I always got the Chocolate Dipped Cone, and then one day I decided to try the Strawberry Sundae. From that day forward, I've ALWAYS ordered the Strawberry Sundae. It is so good!!
At DQ I always order a dip cone and my mom likes the orange Julius! I need to try a blizzard but I think it is partly nostalgia from when I was a kid! Makes it taste good from the good memories!
If you have a local dairy farm that makes ice cream try them out. In my part of Ohio we have Young's Dairy, they have the best ice cream. I used to like grocery store ice cream but they have changed the ingredients, it comes through in flavor and quality. Seems they are now using the cheapest ingredients to make expensive ice cream. I have not had blue bunny ice cream in a while but that was my favorite brand.
Love this video and you guys! You’ve got to add Cold Stone to your list! It also would be fun to see you both compare store bought ice creams like Ben & Jerry’s, Kroger, etc.
When I was little my mom would take us to the gelato place at the grocery store, I want to say the store was Harmons but I can’t remember. It was really good, to this day I think about that gelato. I’ve never been to Italy so I can’t compare.
The reason why Dairy Queen hands Blizzards to you upside down is because they’re supposed to be thick and well blended. If the Blizzard plops out or they forget to hold it upside down you receive a Blizzard for free.
I didn’t know this!! Thanks for sharing!! I’ve had a couple they didn’t turn upside down because it was melted due to long drive thru line. Still good. 😊
@@bekind21another I had a friend in high school that worked at a Dairy Queen. They had to turn them upside down before giving them the treat. There is a sign on the takeout window that states the Blizzard is free if it isn’t held upside down. My friend gained weight there because of eating so many Blizzards. She admitted she purposely messed some orders up so she could eat them. She hated the machine because it was messy while blending especially if people added in extra items. Cleaning the machine was a pain too. I love Blizzards but they’re so expensive now.
For us as kids, Dairy Queen was the “bribe” my parents used so that we would behave on long family trips. But there was no Blizzard then. We always got a chocolate dipped cone. And the last bit of the cone was reserved for the dog. :-) The “Marble Slab” place seems like a knockoff of Cold Stone Creamery. Seems like they used artificial flavors (but I’ve never encountered it so what do I know?) I might have gone to Baskin Robbins for the mid-range tbh. If you ever visit Seattle, try Fainting Goat or Molly Moon. :-)
Here in North Florida the best local chain is Baskin Robbins (favorite flavor is Daiquiri Ice). I mostly get pints of Talenti gelato or Hagen Daz (current favorite is White Chocolate Raspberry Truffle). For the larger Store bought half gallons Breyers Vanilla Bean Vani!la and Mint Chocolate Chip are pretty good.
I’m still a Dairy Queen fan. I grew up going to the one on University Blvd near the overpass, by the train yard. When I moved to Tallahassee in 1989, there weren’t any there then, before we moved in2010, they had some. Hagen Daz Swiss vanilla almond is my favorite. There used to be Swenson’s, Regency had one (so it was a long time ago), and there was one on San Jose. Cold stone is good. Many moons ago when I was a little girl, Jacksonville had Dipper Dans. It was a local chain. There was one in Arlington and I think Lakewood.
Ice cream is a number one seller in Minnesota and Alaska during the winter. Lol I agree store-bought is a better value and definitely a better taste, but I understand wanting to go outside and share with your loved one. I think as a couple you should try the hot chocolate at serendipity in Manhattan, it’s a restaurant that’s a little pompous but the experience is Iconic, I think you will enjoy
Omg i could watch u two watching paint dry & chatting all day, but when i realized u mixed peanut butter cups with Cheescake flavor(one of my faves) my taste buds & brain said "I'm out". I'll get bak to this later...luv you!
The Pistachios ice cream varies a bit. There is a local place where I live that sells it. It's also green, but not THAT green.. Also .. LOTS and LOTS of smashed pieces of actual Pistachios in it. One of my favorites.. But it sucks in a lot of ice cream shops.
The best ice cream I ever had was on a cruise ship and it was cinnamon flavour. Nothing however, beats the incredible gelato I had at a little shop in Sicily. ❤
Love these videos from you 😍 can you do a the employee decided what I eat for a day ? It’s a really cool video and I would love to see your reactions 😂
The Butterfinger Blizzard was my go to, when I had them. I remember when they were first introduced in the late '80's, as a kid. The last time I had one, though, was probably 8 years ago, and it was disappointing (not flavor, but consistency). It was milkshake thick, not Blizzard thick. Dairy Queen is not really common here (Nor-Cal), as there are a few around, but none of them close enough to validate the trip, so going to a different location is not really viable. Haven't been back, since.
It’s terrible quality, with lots of cheap ingredients, like corn syrup. What a horrible idea. He’ll definitely hate it. It’s nothing like Italian gelato.
@@Parker-930 Not being anything like Italian gelato is expected, but yes, it's bad (not unlike almost every other ice cream alternative). But I like seeing his reactions to American chemical products. I'd like to see him try other store-bought ice creams too.
@@Ayan-bp4dq - I can see your point, but as an American, I get embarrassed when people from other countries, try our worst products. We do have some premium ice cream brands that are high-quality and don’t use cheap ingredients or chemicals. I’d like to promote those and show that the US does make worthwhile products that are available to a wide range of people, not just those willing to spend lots of money in high-end expensive grocery stores.
I remember when you could go to Walgreens and get a cone for 50 cents for two scoops. I love rocky road and carmel with heath candy and I go to the grocery store.
Went to a marble slab creamery a few years ago and got the cotton candy to share with my kiddo. Big mistake lol. There's a reason why you shouldn't eat toxic dyed food 😂.

Best Ice cream, at least in the north east, is made on dairy farms and sold in their farm stand (they are usually only open during the late spring to early fall). We are lucky to have so many of these places up here
Nah..custard beats the crap out of that. I mean it's nice for sure but custard beats ice cream every time and Alessio is comparing ice cream to gelato which are vastly different products
so you can make your own pistachio ice cream Ingredients: 250g Pistachio paste 1 can (400g/14oz) Sweetened condensed milk 2 cup (480ml) Heavy cream, cold Vanilla extract (optional) Directions: 1. Make pistachio paste: peel the pistachios from the shell. Then place them in a clean kitchen towel and shake to remove as much skin as possible. 2. Place the pistachios (250-300g) in a powerful blender and blend until smooth and creamy. This process may take 10-15 minutes (depending on your blender) so be patient. Transfer the paste into a bowl, if in this stage the paste is warm place in the fridge. 3. In a large bowl, place cold heavy cream. Whip to stiff peaks. Add sweetened condensed milk, pistachio paste and whisk on low speed until incorporated. Chop 1/4 of pistachios and add to the ice cream, gently fold. This step is optional. 4. Transfer into a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight. 5. Serve!
The "She lie" always cracks me up! 😂 I just came across a green nail polish named Pistachio and realized I now pronounce it like Alessio from watching your videos. If Jessie needs it, it's Dazzle Dry brand. Lol ❤
I was thinking, after seeing the title of the video, that maybe you can do one featuring ice cream that was either lo-cal or sugar free. Some of us, who are diabetic, definitely have problems in finding good quality low sugar/sugar free ice cream. For my money, it sounds like the artisan/small regional are the way to go for gourmet ice cream.👌
There's an Italian man "massimo massimo" that uploads recipes, mostly cookies & bread, show him some love 🥺 he barely gets views I've been subscribed for a few months now
Dairy Queen is Ice Milk. Not ice cream. I used to manage a DQ for 5 years. My favorite is a chocolate ice milk chocolate dipped cone. So good! Blizzards are great too. Pecan cookie with caramel from back in the day was the best!! 😃😃
P.S. The Dairy Queen near my grandma refused to follow the "upside down" trick. They wouldn't turn it upside down, and it was never thick enough to do that. If I had tried, I would have had soft serve all over my counter. They always did their blizzards a bit soft, which I don't mind actually, as long as they're too melted already. And so long as I still have Oreo chunks that I can taste. Too blended and what's the point?
So there's a story behind why they flip the Blizzards. Samuel Temperato, the DQ franchise owner who came up with the idea for Blizzards, was inspired by the frozen treats sold by Ted Drewes, a St. Louis shop owner who termed them “concrete”.

Drewes had enough and one day flipped the malt upside down to show its thickness, assuring his young customer that if it fell out, it was free. Temperato picked this up for Dairy Queen!
Nice, thanks for sharing!
And Ted Drewes is so good!
Born and raised in StL. I approve this message and I miss my Ted Drewes
I never knew this and yes Ted Drewes is amazing!!! I can remember in high school they would do a Ted Drewes Day and gave it to us for free, there was practically a stampede down the hallways to get to it.
I miss Ted Drewes but at least we have an Andy's nearby now
The peanut buster parfait at DQ is EVERYTHING. I've been getting it my whole life. There's just something about hot fudge in cold vanilla ice cream & then the texture crunch of the peanuts w the saltiness all together that makes it OUTSTANDING.
Oh man, when I was a teenager that was my only thing I ate there. Unfortunately, bad teeth so I can’t eat peanuts 😭, but it’s so yum:

I must be ancient but I remember a time before the blizzard. My favorite was, and still is, the dipped cone.
😂❤me too
Some of the best places are small dairies which sell fresh milk, eggs, cheese, and ice cream.

You guys are the best....so genuine and hilarious and so much fun to watch! You have such a great rapport!

Jessi I absolutely love these videos. Alessio is a good sport. And you two are a wonderful amazing couple.

Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia at the grocery store! Yum! 😊❤
Oh man the artisan place close to us does an amazing brown butter ice cream, I wish you had tried that! ❤
You are cutest couple in entire social media, 🧿bless you with each second more and more wonderful and happy moments 💐

That's because you were at a tourist trap. You were near the Spanish Steps. Everything is marked up 400% for the tourists.
100%

The reason for the spoon up to down is because if you suffer from sensitive teeth in the past it helps you enjoy the ice cream

Love it!🍦😋
Jessie's spoon-up ice cream eating method is a yes from me.

Love, love, love DQ!!! Always get vanilla cone, rainbow sprinkles!
I imagine you 2 swinging in a swing on a hot summer day eating and ice cream cone 😄. Good video takes me back to my childhood 🍦😋😄
I am from New England. Ice Cream is year round treat. Ok, a food group all year round😮
I love them all! They’re all so different and I have faves at every level!
Gelato beats them all though 😊😊
Next time you go to Dairy Queen, try their chocolate strawberry Blizzard!
Best Ice cream, at least in the north east, is made on dairy farms and sold in their farm stand (they are usually only open during the late spring to early fall). We are lucky to have so many of these places up here
Nah..custard beats the crap out of that. I mean it's nice for sure but custard beats ice cream every time and Alessio is comparing ice cream to gelato which are vastly different products
"Even the worst ice-cream in Italy is better than this" Hahaha 😂🤣😂🤣
LOL, I was laughing too. Yes, it's better because it's gelato, not ice cream.
They hold it upside down to show you how thick it is. Kind of like how people do that with whipped cream to show proper consistency.
The best gelato in the world is in San Gimignano, Italy!!
You guys should taste test different Italian Gelato next :)
Mmmm I do that by myself every week just for fun 😂 my fave!
Try store bought then gelato shops.
Now you need to do sherbet vs. sorbet and American gelato vs Italian gelato!!
Cold Stone Creamery is the best ice cream place.
We have an iced cream store in southern Utah called “The creamery” that we love! My favorite flavors are the lemon pie and the huckleberry.
so you can make your own pistachio ice cream
Ingredients:
250g Pistachio paste
1 can (400g/14oz) Sweetened condensed milk
2 cup (480ml) Heavy cream, cold
Vanilla extract (optional)
Directions:
1. Make pistachio paste: peel the pistachios from the shell. Then place them in a clean kitchen towel and shake to remove as much skin as possible.
2. Place the pistachios (250-300g) in a powerful blender and blend until smooth and creamy. This process may take 10-15 minutes (depending on your blender) so be patient. Transfer the paste into a bowl, if in this stage the paste is warm place in the fridge.
3. In a large bowl, place cold heavy cream. Whip to stiff peaks. Add sweetened condensed milk, pistachio paste and whisk on low speed until incorporated. Chop 1/4 of pistachios and add to the ice cream, gently fold. This step is optional.
4. Transfer into a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.
5. Serve!
Alessio: "A CUBE DE ICE!"
Me: 😄😂🤣
"I the honest!" 😇😇😇😂😂😂
Penso che qualsiasi gelato in vaschetta del reparto supermercato ovviamente industriale, sia sicuramente sempre migliore di quello Americano!
In East Texas I like Braum's Milk and Ice Cream.💙🙏
You should try the chocolate covered cherry blizzard from DQ! It's the best one they have.
Turkeyhill Farms makes a great pistachio and almond ice cream. It has pieces of almonds and pistachios in it
Alessio was so funny turning his ice cream upside-down.
You guys should try some different types of boba/bubble tea. I like the popping boba best.
I wonder what your thoughts would be on the same level of ice cream, but from different stores. For example: Dairy Queen vs. McDonalds.
#1 y'all should try rolled ice cream and #2 tony's ice cream in Gastonia North Carolina is the best
Love this 😂❤
I would love it if you guys went to Aldi and tried their gelato. I'm curious how he would feel it compared.
Hey guys, loving your videos recently hehe. You guys need to try Mr Whippy in the uk. It’s the best ice cream ever!
What makes me happy in life is a vanilla ice cream cone with crunch and sprinkles at the DQ...
The "She lie" always cracks me up! 😂 I just came across a green nail polish named Pistachio and realized I now pronounce it like Alessio from watching your videos. If Jessie needs it, it's Dazzle Dry brand. Lol ❤
I prefer ice cream in the winter. It’s cold but not refreshing to me. In the summer, shaved ice is my jam
Great video. We love our local DQ!
Butterfinger or snickers blizzard. Rumor is, if they don’t flip it, it’s free.
The best ice cream I had was in Pescara ,a city in Abruzzo.
I was thinking, after seeing the title of the video, that maybe you can do one featuring ice cream that was either lo-cal or sugar free. Some of us, who are diabetic, definitely have problems in finding good quality low sugar/sugar free ice cream.
For my money, it sounds like the artisan/small regional are the way to go for gourmet ice cream.👌
Have yall tried Blue bell creamery ice creams they have great ice cream?
If they forget to turn the blizzard upside down... You get it free.
XD the second ice cream got so much smack talk from him~
There's an Italian man "massimo massimo" that uploads recipes, mostly cookies & bread, show him some love 🥺 he barely gets views I've been subscribed for a few months now
I dunno if someone responded already, but they tip them upside down because if the blizzard falls out or drips, you get one for free lol
In Pennsylvania the best ice cream is homemade at the local farm creamery
I get Italian homemade gelato when I go to Mississippi. It’s amazing!!!
The best ice cream I've had is in Italy - Baccio (hazelnut and chocolate) - OMG! On the street in Venice.
I really enjoy your content!

She lie she lie!!!🤪😂😆❣️
I love melted ice cream. Yummy.
Dairy Queen is Ice Milk. Not ice cream. I used to manage a DQ for 5 years. My favorite is a chocolate ice milk chocolate dipped cone. So good! Blizzards are great too. Pecan cookie with caramel from back in the day was the best!! 😃😃
I remember always getting a chocolate dipped cone at old school dairy queen whenever we were on a road trip as a kid.
P.S. The Dairy Queen near my grandma refused to follow the "upside down" trick. They wouldn't turn it upside down, and it was never thick enough to do that. If I had tried, I would have had soft serve all over my counter. They always did their blizzards a bit soft, which I don't mind actually, as long as they're too melted already. And so long as I still have Oreo chunks that I can taste. Too blended and what's the point?
