Not So Vanilla Vanilla Ice Cream

We received a set of Delizia balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil from my cousin Alice last year, and hadn't opened them up until recently. A suggestion on the balsamic vinegar label was to pour it over vanilla ice cream (who would've thought?), which I tried and didn't love at first but the flavors grew on me. It was still missing something, so I drizzled a little of the olive oil over it and holy smokes--it's amazing! I love ice cream, mostly plain instead of dressed up as a sundae, and have to say that this is its own special type of sundae. I'm not a big dessert person so this combination of a little sweet and a little savory works perfectly for me. Try it!
