SS Some of my favorite flavor combos (not necessarily for ice
SS cream)

SS Coffee and chocolate
SS Peaches and berries
SS Sour cream and onions
SS Coconut curry

Agreeing with Nancy2, lemon and chocolate does not work for me
either but mint and chocolate does. Another that works for me is
raspberry jam and coconut as in the small Scottish cakes whose
name I forget but which are coated with raspberry jam and then
rolled in coconut.
