Scoop Size: One flavor, one scoop hack, one fun fact
The Quick Pint Pick-Me-Up
🍨 Pint Pick
McConnell’s Mint Chip — A true classic, elevated. No neon green here — just a hint of natural green (a delightful sight), pure peppermint oil blended into their velvety cream base, studded with bittersweet chocolate shards that melt on your tongue.
Clean, cool, and grown-up.
Like a bowl of happy memories.
🥄🥄 Scoop Hack
Crush chocolate sandwich cookies (Oreos or your favorite brand) into your mint chip pint before refreezing. You’ll create a DIY Mint Cookies & Cream that tastes like childhood, but better.
💡 Fun Fact
The original Mint chocolate chip combination is a delicious debate, and has been served for many years. The combination gained popularity after a dessert “Mint Royale” was presented in 1973 by a culinary student in England for the royal wedding of Princess Anne.
From palace banquet to freezer aisle staple.
Not to be controversial, but it’s my personal favorite. Mint + Chocolate is perfection.
Until the next scoop,
