Clear the freezer, because Sour Patch Kids is taking over in a new way. Just one day after announcing new ice pops to satiate our Summer sweet tooth [3], the brand shared details of a new partnership with Walmart and its drool-worthy Sour Patch Kids ice cream. According to Delish, the tasty Red, White, and Blue Sour Patch Kids ice cream is available now at stores nationwide [4] through the end of the year.
But rest assured, this is absolutely not just a sour-flavored ice cream. The Walmart-exclusive treat is a combination of lemon sorbet and vanilla light ice cream with a Redberry swirl and pieces of Blue Sour Patch Kids, as the 1.5-quart container so deliciously describes. "This stuff is amazing," junk food-aficionado, junkfoodmom [5], wrote on Instagram.
"If sour is what you're looking for, it's here," she wrote. "The combo ice cream/sorbet works great and has a tart lemon flavor. The Blue Bitz are actual pieces of [Sour Patch] Kids." She explained that most of the blue pieces are small, but she found a few half-sized candies in her container.
Now, about that Redberry swirl . . . that's where the sour magic happens. "Yikes — if you get a spoonful of it, I guarantee your face will pucker up," she wrote with a warning. "This may not be for everyone but if you like sour sweets you'll love this."
Grab your spoons, sour-lovers [7], this ice cream is here to rock your palette all Summer long.
