It's getting near that time again and I have started looking through the ice cream cookbooks and trying out new flavors.

For Baitcon this year I will likely be making the usual...
Cranberry Sorbet (It's not a Baitcon without the Cranberry Sorbet, or so I've been told)
Key-Lime Sorbet
Mandarin-Ginger Sorbet

And possibly, because it was so easy and it came out so good when I made it last week...
Grapefruit Sorbet

What else should I consider making?

I was thinking about doing only sorbets this year, but I have come across some very yummy sounding ice cream recipes lately and am considering ice creams as well. And well someone has to do the standard boring flavors like chocolate and vanilla, for those of us who have less adventurous palates.

Keep in mind I absolutely will not be making all of these flavors. Heck, I may decide to not make any of them and just do the three or four sorbets listed above. I am just throwing the list out there to get opinions. These are the ones I'm considering, I will likely choose from this list (including the ones noted above) when I make my final decisions as to what to bring. Much depends on how easily things are to transport pre-made. If you have a suggestion or request, I can't guarantee it, but I can consider it.

Also if anyone has any questions, or has a flavor idea they would like to try but have no clue where to start, feel free to ping me via email and I'll help out as best I can. I have three shelf feet of ice cream cookbooks. I can probably come up with a recipe, if I can't, I'm really good at faking it.

Meanwhile...

I love the idea of pineapple sorbet, but I will eat pineapple anything.
