A berry sweet celebration: Baskin-Robbins just dropped a festive new flavor for May

May is full of moments worth celebrating—from heartfelt Mother’s Day gatherings and proud graduation milestones to the simple joy of longer days and sun-filled afternoons.

It’s a time when many of us reconnect with loved ones, plan weekend get-togethers, or just take a moment to savor the season.

And now, Baskin-Robbins has added a little extra sweetness to the mix: a brand-new Flavor of the Month that captures all the warmth, color, and cheer of this special time of year.


It’s a scoop that feels like a celebration all on its own—rich, fruity, and full of seasonal joy!

This month’s featured scoop is called Strawberry Tres Leches, inspired by the beloved Latin American “three milks” cake.

It blends tres leches-flavored ice cream with fluffy white cake pieces, juicy strawberry chunks, and a swirl of strawberry ribbon.

Creamy, moist, and just the right amount of sweet—it’s a flavorful nod to spring and summer in every bite.

You can enjoy it in a cup, a cone, or blended into a milkshake.

Want to elevate your next get-together? Add it to one of Baskin-Robbins’ ice cream cakes for a celebration-ready treat.


More to sip and savor​


In addition to the new flavor, Baskin-Robbins is launching a refreshing new drink: the Lava Colada.

It’s a tropical frozen blend of creamy coconut, tangy pineapple, and a swirl of strawberry flavor—perfect for a sunny day on the porch or an easy way to bring vacation vibes to your backyard.
