Every Salt & Straw Holiday Ice Cream Flavor, Ranked
BY ROBYN SONG
5. Almond Brittle
Coming in last place, Almond Brittle with Salted Ganache is indulgent, featuring thick swirls of chocolate fudge and an abundance of savory almond brittle.
Each spoonful reveals more mouthwatering mix-ins than the last. The almond brittle pieces have an almost smoky finish, and the salted chocolate ganache is a magical match for them.
4. Gingerbread Cookie
The Gingerbread Cookie Dough is a beautifully balanced, sweetly spiced dessert that tastes like freshly baked biscuits have been swirled into the mix.
It's also one of the most aesthetically pleasing options from Salt & Straw's holiday lineup, with gorgeous auburn and cream swirls that resemble a slice of marbled pumpkin loaf.
3. Chocolate & Almonds
White Chocolate & Peppermint Almonds is sweet thanks to the toasted white chocolate and paired with chewy bits of chocolate-coated almonds.
The toasting process gives this classic recipe an entirely new taste and is one of the most delicate flavor combinations
of the series.
2. Spiked Eggnog
Dwanta's Teremana Spiked Eggnog is a custard ice cream infused with Teremana Reposado Tequila,
Amontillado sherry, agave,
and holiday spices.
It's reminiscent of a grown-up cream soda with the slight tang of spirits interwoven with the custardy base. Even those who are neutral toward eggnog will enjoy it.
1. Chocolate Cookie Dough
Chocolate Sugar Cookie Dough has a luscious, milk-chocolate ice cream base flecked with garnet-colored swirls and generous mounds of buttery sugar cookies.
Despite being vegan, this flavor is impressively creamy. The raspberry jam provided a fruity bite and the cinnamon-dusted sugar cookie pieces took things over the edge.
