109 Labor of Love DownRiver Ice Cream, Essex It's been more than 10 years since Amy Cinq- Mars, founder and sole owner, shook up the North Shore ice cream scene with devotion to her craft and funny flavor names—one of her most popular is Phyrexian Peanut Butter Corruption: Chocolate ice cream with peanut butter swirl and peanut butter chocolate truffles. Even the regular vanilla gets a name upgrade, labeled Vanilla Sky. Cinq-Mars says she still wakes up in the middle of the night with new flavor ideas, going out on a limb occasionally with creations like Little Piggies—maple ice cream with chocolate covered bacon. "Making your own ice cream is demanding work," Cinq-Mars says. "Truly a labor of love if you do it like we do—one tub at a time." downrivericecream.com DownRiver in Essex has been around for 10 years.
