Ice Queen

You say "vanilla ice cream with fudge brownies and raspberry swirls," Ben & Jerry's say "Queen"! A new flavor for rock 'n' cream enthusiasts from Vermont's dairy duo. Feast your eyes...

No idea how Bohemian Raspberry tastes, but the name kicks the shit outta Dave Matthews Band Magic Brownies Original Ice Cream, no? (Phish Food, too.) Now Cherry Garcia, that's a classic in pun and flavor.

Suggestions for Ben & Jerry? Which band next -- and whatchagonnacallit?

How about "Ryan Adams". Same name on each and every pint, but there's a new version of it every other week or so.

As a guilty Ben & Jerry's junkie, I do believe that this is the same flavor mix as the Dave Matthews ice cream. That too was brownies in vanilla with raspberry swirls. Perhaps this is their mix for rent.
