Trader Joe's is once again expanding its lineup of dairy-free desserts with the addition of its new Okie Dokie Oat Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert.
The inspiration for the new ice cream comes from a New Zealand treat called "hokey pokey," which consists of vanilla ice cream mixed with bits of honeycomb toffee. Trader Joe's version offers that same mix of creamy and crunchy textures, but with a unique twist. The base of Okie Dokie Oat Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert is made from vanilla-flavored oat beverage, which means it's entirely dairy-free. The oat mixture is then studded with spongey toffee pieces and a rich caramel swirl. The result is a tasty vegan-friendly version of the classic New Zealand treat.
