Episode #216 - Alec Jaffe

We care what we put on our dinner plates, right? So, shouldn’t we care about what’s for dessert too? 

That’s where my guest, Alec Jaffe, comes in. He is the founder of Alec’s Ice Cream, the first-ever regenerative organic ice cream. Alec partners with Alexandre Family Farm for all of the milk that goes into their product. Alexandre’s is the first certified regenerative dairy farm in the U.S., and their cows are genetically tested to ensure the production of A2 milk.

The sugar used in this premium product is sourced from Native Green Cane Project, another company known for being the first in the regenerative realm by being the first cane sugar to earn the Regenerative Organic Alliance certification.

And you may be thinking, “Well, that sounds great, but does it taste good?” I am here to tell you this is the creamiest, most delicious ice cream I’ve ever tasted!

So grab a pint and listen in as Alec and I chat about:

• Alec’s childhood ice cream adventures

• The benefits of premium ice cream

• Their process for choosing flavors

• Where you can find Alec’s Ice Cream

• Alec’s elevator pitch for regenerative farming

• Why A2 milk?

• The challenges of starting a food business
