BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WBRC) - Just in time for spring, Blue Bell is introducing their first new flavor of 2026 — Honey Vanilla.
According to Blue Bell Creameries, the new flavor is available in stores on Thursday, Feb. 26. The flavor is described as “simple and delicious.”
“We are buzzing with excitement over the release of our first new flavor of the year,” said Carl Breed, Blue Bell vice president. “Honey Vanilla is for those who love simple flavors done right. The rich, creamy ice cream texture blends perfectly with the honey’s mild sweetness. Honey Vanilla was created to enjoy on its own, but it also pairs well with desserts like cookies, cakes and brownies.”
The new flavor will be available in a “extra-sweet” pint size carton, decorated with “eye-catching graphics that honey fanatics will appreciate,” according to Blue Bell. Except, it’ll only be available for a limited time!
“Our Honey Vanilla is sure to stand out in the ice cream aisle,” Breed said. “The carton is wrapped in an image of a warm yellow honeycomb with a honey jar and dipper. It’s another fun element we like to add when introducing new flavors.”
