It’s called Kraken Ship Wrecked and this limited-edition ice cream collaboration is available now from Goldbelly. There’s nothing frightening about this collaboration. The ice cream itself is a blend of Kraken Black Spiced Rum with cherries and chocolate. The result is a boozy, sweet, chocolatey, spiced ice cream for the cold autumn days ahead.
