Graeter’s x Skyline Spice Ice Cream is a new frozen treat arriving from the brand in collaboration with Skyline Chili to provide consumers with a decidedly delicious yet unconventional treat to enjoy.
The ice cream is crafted with Graeter's signature French Pot ice cream that's ultra-creamy and crafted by hand, which has been infused with oyster crackers and Skyline's signature chili spice mix. The result is a sweet and savory ice cream that could be polarizing for consumers who either love or hate the unexpected taste and texture experience.
Graeter’s x Skyline Spice Ice Cream is available now for purchase from the brand's scoop shops, online and at select Kroger locations but only for a limited time.
