This is the most delicious ice cream I’ve ever tasted.
Buy some.
Eat some.
Share some.
Serve a generous scoop in the middle of a cold, over-sized plate, perhaps garnished with a sprig of mint. Eat it slowly and deliberately, cutting through the cream with your spoon, just one bite ahead of its melting.
There is something romantic about this flavor – sweet, subtly delicate, like a slow and lippy passionate kiss that leaves you wanting more.
Get a babysitter, and take your sweetheart out after dinner to chase the sunset together. Bring a pint of honey ice cream, two spoons, a full tank of gas and some back roads, and see where the experience takes you.
From the Häagen-Dazs website:
Rich, sumptuous waves of cream mingle with evocative glimpses of tropical honey. The rare and delicate texture of the Lehua honey is entirely different from any honey you’ve ever tasted.
Lehua honey comes from the remote volcanic slopes of Mauna Loa on the Big Island of Hawaii. There, honeybees gather nectar from the Ohia tree’s fragrant Lehua blossoms. These beautiful red flowers are the unique flavor source for this rare, amber honey.
