nutribullet® Crowns Protein Caramel Horchata Ice Cream as its First Flavor of the Year
Born from the global "Scoops Around the World" campaign, Spain's warm, cinnamony, and protein-packed creation takes the ultimate dessert title.
LOS ANGELES, July 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Following a whirlwind global culinary journey, nutribullet®, a leader in personal blending and innovative kitchen appliances, today announced that Protein Caramel Horchata Ice Cream has officially been crowned its first Flavor of the Year.
The winning creation was born from nutribullet's "Scoops Around the World" campaign, a dessert celebration of cultural flavors, traditions, and stories. The series featured an exciting lineup of international creators sharing recipes from the U.S., Italy, the U.K., Mexico, and the Philippines, alongside globally inspired ice cream creations representing Spain, Canada, Poland, Thailand, and Australia/New Zealand. Together, these recipes showcased how food can connect people and communities while taking audiences on a sweet adventure across the globe.
After showcasing these diverse flavor stories, nutribullet invited ice cream enthusiasts to vote on their favorite recipe from the collection. Dessert lovers made their choice clear, crowning the Protein Caramel Horchata Ice Cream as the official Flavor of the Year.
This winning recipe is a modern, dairy-free spin on Spain's beloved traditional drink. By blending warm cinnamon, sweet dates, and creamy caramel notes, this unique, satisfying, and indulgent frozen treat is entirely free of refined sugar. With a sneaky boost of protein blended right in, it is incredibly easy to whip up and enjoy at home whenever a sweet craving strikes.
"The "Scoops Around the World" campaign proved that the love for frozen treats is a universal language," said Mallory Jurich, VP of Marketing at Capital Brands. "With the nutribullet Chill, we wanted to show how effortless it is to bring complex, worldly flavors into any kitchen. Spain's Protein Caramel Horchata Ice Cream completely captured the hearts and taste buds of our community because it delivers everything modern food lovers want: nostalgic flavor, cultural storytelling, and better-for-you ingredients without sacrificing an ounce of creamy richness."
