Inside scoop: Blue Bell introduces new ice cream flavor

Dr Pepper Float is creamy vanilla ice cream swirled together with a Dr Pepper flavored sherbet, the company announced on its website.

“The best ice cream floats are made with Dr Pepper poured over a few scoops of Blue Bell,” said Jimmy Lawhorn, Blue Bell vice president of sales and marketing.

The new flavor is available in pint and half-gallon sizes through 2024.

“Our Texas heritage is so important to us at Dr Pepper, and we are excited to team up with fellow Texas-born brand, Blue Bell, to create this new delicious treat,” shared John Alvarado, senior vice president of Dr Pepper brand marketing.

The Herald on Thursday received a sample of the new flavor, which was well-received among the office.
