I split a cup between two scoops ($3.79) of Baskin-Robbins' special flavors for summer. "Bumble Buzz" is honey ice cream with pieces of chocolate-coated honeycomb, plus bands of dark fudge. Nice back-and-forth of flavors, and a bumblebee-appropriate color scheme, too. "SPF 31" — coconut ice cream and pieces of coconut macaroon, swirled with banana ice cream — was OK, but macaroons don't hold their texture well enough to be much better than an annoyance.
From a later occasion, the photo shows a scoop of pistachio almond (about $2.50) after dinner in New Canaan, Connecticut.
