Jeni has never been a fan of mint ice creams. But when she opened Jeni’s in 2002, she wanted to offer something to the mint-loving crowd. Her challenge: Create a mint ice cream that even she could love. Savannah Buttermint—inspired by those melt-in-your-mouth, pillow mint candies in the restaurants of our grandparents’ generation—was the answer. Minty and very buttery, the white chocolate flecks give the ice cream a pronounced creaminess.

Soft and sophisticated, but surprisingly salty, it’ll conjure up visions of dappled yellow sunlight through Spanish moss in a Savannah square.
