Baskin Robbins is definitely excited to celebrate Halloween, they have many new flavors. One of them is Orange Slime Time, the new recommended flavor of the month. This flavor is available only for the season. The combination of orange ice cream and the sour “slime” ribbons make for a refreshing treat on autumn days.

The other flavor that caught our attention the most is called Magical Mint Knight. It’s a combination of bitter chocolate, mint and candy pieces. Not only does it look awesome, but it also tastes amazing, especially if you’re a fan of bitter chocolate.

2. Starbucks
