Summer is right around the corner, which means only one thing: ice cream! Yes, we all love a good scoop or two, and now you can have some ice cream based on your favourite Nintendo IP, including Mario<\/strong>, Splatoon<\/strong>, and Kirby<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This comes via a new collaboration with Nintendo of America and N\u00e9kter Juice Bar<\/a>, the latter of which is bringing back its popular ‘Skoop’ frozen treats in the form of Nintendo-related flavours. There are three vegan-friendly options to choose from in over 200 locations across the U.S., including Mario Kart Cookie Cruiser, Splatlands Birthday, and Kirby’s Berry Dream. Here’s a bit more info on each flavour:<\/p>\n

\n

– Mario Kart Cookie Cruiser<\/strong>: A collision of cookie dough, blue spirulina and N\u00e9kter’s own coconut cream blend.<\/p>\n

– Splatlands Birthday<\/strong>: A burst of color and cake batter flavor from a coconut cream blend with turmeric and topped with natural sprinkles.<\/p>\n

– Kirby’s Berry Dream<\/strong>: A dreamy combination of strawberry puree and N\u00e9kter’s coconut cream blend.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

If that’s not quite enough to whet your appetite, N\u00e9kter and Nintendo of America are also offering up 25 Nintendo Switch Prize Packs, which include a Switch OLED Model console and a download code for either Mario Kart 8 Deluxe<\/a>, Splatoon 3<\/a>, or Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe<\/a>. Ooh, tasty!<\/p>\n
