Eggnog is the perfect embodiment of the holidays; it's sweet, festive and will lead to a good time. My family makes a batch of homemade eggnog every year to enjoy during tree decorating, present opening and other festivities. This year, Blue Bell Ice Cream has made Eggnog Ice Cream, the creamy, delicious, ice cream version of our favorite holiday beverage.

What Flavor is Blue Bell Eggnog Ice Cream?
If you didn't think it could get better than a creamy, rich drink with spicy notes of cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves, think again. Blue Bell Eggnog ice cream has all the flavor of eggnog, but with the creamy texture of ice cream.
Blue Bell Eggnog Ice Cream consists of yummy eggnog flavored French ice cream with flecks of nutmeg and a whipped topping swirl. This limited edition ice cream flavor is available in the half gallon size for a limited time.
Jimmy Lawhorn, Vice President, Sales and Marketing for Blue Bell Ice Cream says "Many people compare eggnog to ice cream because of its creamy texture. Our ice cream captures the flavor of eggnog perfectly. Your first spoonful is sweet, then you immediately taste a hint of nutmeg. Eggnog is a very popular drink during the Christmas season, but we think our new ice cream could very well take its place."
