CINCINNATI, June 3, 2025
/PRNewswire/ -- The Kroger Co. (NYSE: KR) is scooping up the
ultimate taste of summer with its limited-time Kroger Brand Summer in a Pint collection.
Available in select quantities the collection features four new ice
cream and sherbet flavors that will transport customers to a dreamy
summer getaway in just one scoop – no travel required.
To kick off the official start of summer and make it even easier
for customers to get a taste of the new Summer in a Pint
collection, Kroger is bringing back its highly anticipated free
pint offer for the summer solstice. On June
20, the retailer is giving away 92,000 pints of free ice
cream – that is 1,000 pints of ice cream for each of summer's 92
days.
"We're thrilled to launch the Summer in a Pint collection
offering customers a taste of summer paradise – no passport or
boarding pass needed," said Mike
Murphy, Group Vice President of Center Store Merchandising
at Kroger. "Last year, we were blown away by customer excitement
for our free pint offer and this summer we are making it even
sweeter. Kroger is giving away 92,000 free pints of ice cream so
more customers can celebrate the start of summer with a taste of
our new flavors."
Inspired by dreamy summer escapes and leisurely summer days, the
limited-time Summer in a Pint collection includes four flavors to
satisfy every type of wanderlust, including:
- Italian Style Summer Fizz: Transporting taste buds
to a carefree moment in the Euro summer sun, this blood
orange-flavored sherbet is loaded with popping candy clusters and a
blood orange-flavored ribbon.
- Fireside Nights: An elevated take on classic
s'mores, this toasted marshmallow- flavored ice cream features
s'mores pieces and a glittering swirl that radiates the orange hue
of a campfire flame so campers and glampers can enjoy a bounty that
does not require roughing it.
- Sandy Shores: Like
tropical waters cascading across shorelines, this coconut-flavored
ice cream is reminiscent of crystal-blue seas and swirled with a
sweet and salty pretzel crunch for a treat even better than a beach
day.
- Poolside Tan Lines: Mimicking the tan lines
achieved after kicking back poolside, this flavor swirls together
vanilla bean, chocolate and coffee ice creams – no SPF
necessary.
Grab a pint while they are still in the freezers. Available in
limited quantities, the Summer in a Pint collection won't stick
around all summer.
