Ice Cold Coffee or an Ice Cream Coffee to Kick Start Your Day Augusta?

Author Darasha

Are you brave enough to trade in your morning iced coffee for a morning ice cream?

One of the most popular drinks in the world is now in ice cream form at Summerville Scoops. Summerville Scoops is a local ice cream shop in Augusta. While the flavor is out now, it is only for a limited time! This flavor is called the Salted Caramel Cold Brew! It’s real coffee ice cream with ribbons of salted caramel swirled in.

The “Original” Salted Caramel Cold Brew

This drink is seen as a seasonal drink, because it’s perfect for the warm weather. You may be most familiar with it from Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, or any other coffee shop.

10 Wild Ice Cream Flavors to Try This Season

Summer is officially ice cream season, and July is National Ice Cream Month. Actually, every season is ice cream season, if you ask me. I seriously enjoy scoops of my favorite ice cream whether it’s 90 degrees outside or freezing cold. When it comes to ice cream flavors, it’s hard to beat the classics. Vanilla, chocolate, chocolate-chip and mint chocolate-chip are always favorites. But, why not switch it up and try some really wild ice cream flavors?

As a graduate of Michigan State University, I’ve tried many random ice cream flavors at the MSU Dairy Store. MSU is an agricultural college, so it’s known for the Dairy Store and having delicious ice cream. Honey Lavender and Spartan Swirl come to mind. But, enough about MSU. You don’t have to come to Michigan to get some unique ice cream flavors.

Read on for 10 wild ice cream flavors that you need to try. These flavors are all from major ice cream makers, so they should be fairly easy to find, no matter where you’re located. I’ve also included some non-dairy and gluten-free ice cream options for vegans and those on a gluten-free diet. I’m not vegan, but my favorite ice cream currently is actually non-dairy. Hopefully, there’s enough variety on this list for you to find your new favorite ice cream flavor.

It’s worth noting that some of these ice cream flavors are seasonal and only available in the summer. That said, the majority of the flavors below are currently available year-round.

  • Haagen-Dazs - Summer Berry Cake Pop Ice Cream

    I’ve definitely never heard of “Summer Berry Cake Pop Ice Cream.” What is a summer berry cake pop? Regardless, it sounds great. “We swirl velvety strawberry ice cream with sweet cream ice cream, add perfect, fluffy cake pieces and then finish with a tangy raspberry sauce,” they describe on their website.

  • Halo Top - Blueberry Crumble

    Halo Top ice cream is diet ice cream, with way less calories than regular ice cream. Their flavors are pretty standard, but they do have one, “Blueberry Crumble,” that’s super unique. I don’t eat diet ice cream, but my friend had me try this one, and it was good. “Swirls of sweet blueberry pie filling and chunks of pie crust, our Blueberry Crumble light ice cream delivers the best of spring with a good source of protein,” Halo Top states on their official website.

  • Baskin-Robbins - Cookie Monster

    When I think of “Cookie Monster” ice cream, I definitely picture something blue, just like the real Cookie Monster. Well, Baskin-Robbins has that flavor of ice cream, and it’s blue. They describe it as “sweet cream ice cream stuffed with chocolate sandwich cookie pieces, chocolate-chip cookie pieces and cookie dough batter flavored swirls.” That sounds delish.

    Blue Bunny keeps their flavors list pretty classic. That said, they do have a few flavors that stand out. One is “Cherrific Cheesecake,” which taste like it sounds. “Cheesecake frozen dairy dessert, cherry and graham swirls,” they describe. It’s like cherry cheesecake, but it’s ice cream.
