If you’re shvitzing in all this summer heat, reach for an ice cream with some chutzpah: Chozen Ice Cream. Created by Manhattanite Ronne Fisher and her two daughters, Chozen is an all-natural ice cream inspired by the sweets and desserts of their favorite Jewish holidays. There’s cinnamon ice cream with homemade raisin walnut rugelach, or there’s the Matzoh Crunch: vanilla ice cream with chocolate and caramel coated matzoh sprinkled with kosher salt.

Now, that’s kosher.
