If you’re a huge Stranger Things fan, you’re probably familiar with the Scoops Ahoy ice creams, but have you ever wondered what they taste like? Netflix bosses decided to solve this mystery by joining forces with Walmart for an exclusive ice cream collection that will take you to the Upside Down.
Scoops Ahoy is one of the iconic locations introduced in the third season of the beloved sci-fi series. Fan favorite characters Steve Harrington or Robin Buckley used to work at this nautical-themed ice cream parlor at the time, and Scoops Ahoy stayed an important part of the Stranger Things lore even after they left it behind.
According to Netflix’s official press release, this ice cream collection is inspired by episodes, themes, and characters from the world of Stranger Things. They launched a sea of delicious flavors that will take you away to the heart of Hawkins, Indiana.
Four of the flavors, called U.S.S. Butterscotch, Cinnamon Bun Bytes, Chocolate Pudding, and Triple Decker, are inspired by the series itself, and they’re all tied to specific episodes and characters. The remaining three flavors – Mint Flare, Pineapple Upside, and The Void – have a spookier vibe because they draw inspiration from the show’s mysterious alternative dimension the Upside Down.
