New Jeni’s Flavor: Summer Berries & Passion Fruit

Fro-yo girl here. Remember back to when Jeni’s used to be proud of offering frozen yogurt? They were the only ones making buttermilk frozen yogurt (as far as I know). They deemphasized the fact that they make frozen yogurt, and the latest flavor, Summer Berries & Passion Fruit, has yogurt and cultured buttermilk, but it’s called ice cream.

Jeni’s describes the flavor as, “A lush, fragrant blend of raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries folded into cream. Cultured buttermilk and fresh yogurt to boost the berries’ brightness and create an almost bouncy texture. The showstopping finish? A sunny passion fruit curd that adds perfect texture and tropical punch to every bite.”

Summer Berries & Passion Fruit: The color and flavor reminded me of blueberries and cream, with added tang from the yogurt and cultured buttermilk. The passion fruit hits you after (it’s drizzled in rather than blended throughout). The yogurt buttermilk ice cream is quite tangy and quite sweet. I liked it, but I do prefer the even tangier froyo flavors like Rainbow BFY (buttermilk frozen yogurt).

A single scoop is almost $9 now, pre-tax.

You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.
