Mermaid mystery
Did you know there’s a new ICEE flavor called Mermaid?
Well, there is:
When we put together our ICEE Mix It Up Sweepstakes, we wanted to include a list of the 12 flavors we’ll offer this season. The three new flavors are Warheads Strawberry Grape Smashup, Strawberry Lemonade, and … Mermaid.
Mermaid?
A quick check around the office resulted in a list of (mostly unhelpful) ideas:
- Fishstick
- Sardine
- Seaweed
- Cotton candy (already exists)
- Bubblegum, but green
- Pineapple and blue raspberry
Thankfully, the cavalry crested the hillside in the form of an email from our ICEE Guy (yes, we have an ICEE Guy) moments later, revealing the true flavor profile:
So now we know it’s a lovely teal color.
And the taste?
It’s “mixed berry,” meaning a combination of Strawberry, Raspberry, and Blueberry.
It’s been interesting to note that quite a few of the people who’ve entered our sweepstakes are eager to try Mermaid. A few asked, “What flavor is Mermaid?” but most didn’t.
Our sweepstakes runs through Tuesday, April 9 at 2:30pm CDT. You’re welcome to enter daily. Good luck to all!
