While many people associate summertime with colorful prints and bright hues, Kraken Black Spiced Rum is serving up something noticeably darker from its Black Summer Skream truck. Making its way across Canada, the mysterious food truck will be doling out gothic frozen treats to hungry customers all summer long.
The Black Summer Skream truck is an ice cream truck with a dark twist. Instead of white, the truck is pitch black and decorated with tentacles that echo the branding of Kraken Black Spiced Rum. From the truck, customers can order Kraken Black Spiced Rum ice cream, which is completely black in color. Some lucky customers will even be able to pair their icy treat with a sample of Kraken Black Spiced Rum.
Set to appear at music festivals and outdoor events all summer long, the Black Summer Skream truck puts a not-so-colorful twist on a classic warm-weather treat.
