Dwayne Johnson Drops New Ice Cream Pint Pack with Salt & Straw

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Emerson chapter.

Named “Dwanta Claus” by the Salt & Straw elves, Dwayne Johnson teams up with the iconic ice cream brand for the third year in a row to release a special five pint pack with three original flavors concocted by The Rock himself.

They’re being released just in time for the holidays and each flavor represents a different favorite meal of the celebrity, each being particularly decadent. The three extravagant new flavors include PB&J (Pretty Badass & Jolly) Coconut Banana Pancakes; Naughty Nutty, Tipsy Toasty Teremana Pecan Pie; and Dwanta’s Teremana Spiked Eggnog

These are paired with the returning classic flavors of Double Fold Vanilla and Chocolate Gooey Brownie. Besides the indulgent deliciousness of the new flavors, Salt & Straw and Teremana (The Rock’s signature Tequila brand) are donating $1 per pint of Dwanta’s Teremana Spiked Eggnog sold in December to nonprofit World Central Kitchen.

The PB&J (Pretty Badass & Jolly) Coconut Banana Pancakes flavor features “golden bites of fluffy coconut pancakes” along with peanut butter cups, marionberry jam, and candied coconut flakes. Naughty Nutty, Tipsy Toasty Teremana Pecan Pie is loaded with, you guessed it, crispy pecan pie bits paired with spiced Teremana Tequila cream. Finally, Dwanta’s Teremana Spiked Eggnog flavor is the most simple, blending the “oaky vanilla” of Teremana Tequila with smooth cream finished with amontillado sherry, salt, and nutmeg. 

Available for the holidays through the Salt & Straw website, this pint pack ships nationwide and could make a fantastic holiday gift for any ice cream (or tequila) lover in your life. It’s currently priced at $65 USD, not including shipping. Make sure to snatch this pint pack to make your holidays merry, bright, and full of ice cream!
