Jeni's has announced that it will be adding its 'Everything Bagel Ice Cream' back to its product lineup in 2022. The ice cream was originally tested with a variety of other breakfast-flavored ice creams in early 2021, and the brand found that the everything bagel flavor sold out in less than nine days across all of its stores and retail partners.
The ice cream itself is made with most of the ingredients and toppings that are typical to an everything bagel. The recipe includes poppy seeds, sesame, garlic, onion, and cream cheese, on top of its ice cream base. This means the frozen treat tastes like a savory bagel while also tasting like a sweet cold snack.
