The Rock Has Holiday Ice Cream Mixing Festive Flavors With Tequila
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is known for his action-packed movies, but this holiday season, he showcasing his sweet side. How so? He’s teamed up with Salt & Straw to introduce five new ice cream flavors in a five-pint pack including some that are infused with Johnson’s Teremana Tequila. The Dwanta Claus Holiday Ice Cream Pack debuted back in 2019 and this year is inspired by the Rock’s cheat meals for flavors. They include:
- PB&J (Pretty Badass & Jolly) Coconut Banana Pancakes – A limited-edition ice cream that contains homemade peanut butter cups, coconut pancake bits, marionberry jam and candied coconut flakes blended with banana ice cream and streusel crumble.
- Naughty Nutty, Tipsy Toasty Teremana Pecan Pie – This limited-edition flavor promises all boozy pecan pie goodness with brown sugar, toasted pecans, vanilla, spiked cream, and a splash of Teremana Tequila.
- Dwanta’s Teremana Spiked Eggnog – This one’s a fan-favorite from past years. It celebrates classic eggnog with nutmeg, salt amontillado sherry, and Teremana Tequila.
- Chocolate Gooey Brownie – This one’s more on the simple side: chocolate ice cream and brownie batter.
- Double Fold Vanilla – A total classic in their lineup, the company says this vanilla is anything but a plain jane. How so? The Salty Dog brand vanilla extract is made with twice as many vanilla beans as other brands..
Here’s the thing. The five-pint holiday packs aren’t cheap – they’re $65, or about $13 apiece – but $1 for every pint sold will be donated to World Central Kitchen’s Restaurants for the People program and Teremana Tequila will match every $1 donation.
