[[Vanilla|Vanilla, which]] comes from a tropical vine, is frequently used to flavor [[ice cream]], especially in North America, Asia, and Europe. The type of vanilla used in ice cream varies by region. In North America and Europe, consumers are interested in a more prominent, smoky flavor, while in [[Ireland]], a more [[anise]]-like flavor is desired. Many people often consider vanilla to be the default flavor of ice cream (see "[[plain vanilla]]").

'''Vanilla ice cream''', like other flavors, was originally created by cooling a mixture made of cream, sugar, and vanilla above a container of ice and salt. Vanilla comes from an agriculturally valuable crop, an orchid.  To create the smooth consistency of vanilla ice cream, the mixture had to be stirred occasionally and then returned to the container to continue the solidification process.

Vanilla was first used among the [[Mexica]]. By the 1510s, [[Spanish conquistadors]], exploring present-day [[Mexico]], had come across [[Mesoamerican]] people who consumed vanilla in their drinks and foods. The vanilla bean was brought back to [[Spain]] with the conquistadors. In Spain, "vanilla was used to flavor a chocolate drink that combined [[Cocoa beans|cacao]] beans, vanilla, corn, water, and ice". The drink eventually spread to [[France]], [[England]], and then all of [[Europe]] by the early 1600s. In 1602, [[Hugh Morgan (apothecary)|Hugh Morgan]], the [[apothecary]] of [[Elizabeth I of England|Queen Elizabeth I]], recommended that vanilla should be used separately from cocoa.
