Yorkshire Tea Ice Cream Launched as Yorkshire Producers Team Up

The limited edition ice cream is made using the Yorkshire Tea loose leaf blend, which is first brewed and steeped overnight before being blended with natural dairy ice cream. Flecks of the tea leaves are rippled throughout the ice cream.

The ‘Yorkshire Tea Ice Cream’ flavour has been created as a one-off recipe especially for the Kendal Calling Music Festival which took place 26- 28 July at Lowther Deer Park in the Lake District.

Ice cream maker Yummy Yorkshire linked up with Yorkshire Tea after the brand approached them about the project. Louise Holmes co-founder of Yummy Yorkshire and said: “A big part of our company ethos is working with interesting local food producers so that we can create ice cream flavours that are a little unusual and different. Collaborating with Yorkshire Tea was therefore a natural fit for us. The resulting ice cream is sweet, creamy and intense but also very refreshing.”

Heidi Dyson, Assistant Brand Manager for Yorkshire Tea adds: “As a family-owned Yorkshire business, Yummy Yorkshire has a lovely synergy with the Yorkshire Tea brand, so were the perfect choice for this exciting collaboration”
