There are only three days left to celebrate the year’s most glorious extended holiday, National Ice Cream Month. While we have absolutely no compunction about digging into a triple-scoop cone, we do have qualms about clashing our gemstones with our desserts. After all, your ice should match your ice cream. Thus, should you need some inspiration — of either the gastronomic or the fine jewelry variety — consult our handy chart, below, to find both the perfect ring and the perfect flavor. And for the truly ambitious: use it as a checklist.
