On February 18, 2022, McConnellโs Fine Ice Creams of Santa Barbara, California, reunited once more with award-winning, Texas-made whiskey distillery Garrison Brothers for a relaunch of their limited edition boozy ice cream collaboration flavor โ โGarrison Bros. Whiskey Pecan & Pralines.โ
This flavor collab highlights the distilleryโs small batch Texas Straight Bourbon (smooth, sweet, smoky, and spicy all at once) and blends it with a delightful mixture of Central Coast milk and cream, topped off with buttery, salt-roasted, and caramel-coated pecans for a flavor profile that will make your taste buds dance with joy.
I had the pleasure of getting the inside scoop (wink-wink) on this delectable one-of-a-kind ice cream. Hereโs what I thought about this exclusive flavor:
โI love, love, love this flavor combo. Itโs a blend of all-around gooey goodness, and a bold flavor move that I never would have come up with myself (but now fear the thought of having to live without). Very inventive overall. Itโs definitely got a bit of a nice bite from the whiskey, which blends perfectly with the rich, smooth, creamy caramel and the saltiness from the buttery coating of the pecans.โ

This exclusive ice cream flavor collaboration will be available for purchase online by the pint (nationwide shipping) and also at any McConnellโs scoop shops along the West Coast. Keep in mind, it is a limited edition collab, and this exciting boozy flavor is expected to sell out quickly โ so if you want to experience the undeniable deliciousness, act fast! Pints are available for $12 online and $11.50 in scoop shops.
