Soft-serve made with Vermont maple syrup folded into the cream base; deeper and more caramel-forward than vanilla, with a faint smokiness from the sugarhouse boil. The Vermont summer ice-cream.

The term 'creemee' is Vermont vernacular for soft-serve; maple creemees rose to prominence in the 1960s as sugarhouses began folding maple syrup into commercial soft-serve mix to differentiate from out-of-state ice cream. Palmer Lane Maple, Morse Farm and dozens of sugarhouses serve the canonical version; in Burlington proper, the Skinny Pancake and seasonal lakefront vendors run them through summer.
