Baskin-Robbins has been scooping vegan ice cream flavors for a few years now, and the brand is now introducing an all-new May Flavor of the Month, Non-Dairy Strawberry Streusel, with a different base. Previously, Baskin-Robbins released plant-based treats with a coconut oil and almond butter base and its new treat features creamy oat milk.
Non-Dairy Strawberry Streusel, the first oat milk-based frozen treat from Baskin-Robbins incorporates berry, cinnamon granila and crumbly streusel.
Baskin-Robbins is planning to introduce even more frozen dessert flavors made with oat milk later this year. Shannon Blakely, Vice President of Marketing & Culinary, Baskin-Robbins told LIVEKINDLY, "with so many people living plant-based or flexitarian lifestyles today, we couldn’t be more excited to launch our new oat milk-based option."
