While many have probably thought about having ice cream for breakfast, this coffee n' donut ice cream flavor takes the more realistic route of infusing a bit of breakfast into dessert. The official June 2015 Flavor of the Month, the coffee n' donut ice cream is the product of a fun partnership between Baskin-Robbins and sister chain Dunkin' Donuts.
The coffee n' donut ice cream, which will be available in American Baskin-Robbins locations for the month of June, is a coffee and donut flavor, which also contains donut pieces throughout. The June 2015 Flavor of the Month is available in a cone, cup, as a sundae or in a Cappuccino Blast milkshake.
The coffee n' donut ice cream accompanies several Father's Day cakes also available this month.
