Jock's Ice Creams & Sorbets, Albert Park

With all the studying & stress, my brain has been itching me for some ice-cream. I was tempted to pop by the near-by Il Dolce Freddo but my body took control and I hopped onto the next tram to South Melbourne beach! Gladly, I obeyed;) Why waste this sunny day? In Melbourne, you'd never know when the next thunderstorm will whiz by!


 
A short walk from the beach and Voila! I'm ready for some ice-cream from Jock's.



One particular flavour caught my eyes. Obamarama! Peanut butter and Jelly ice-cream! PB&J! That absolutely made my day:)

Other interesting flavours include: Cinnamon, Roast Almond, Hokey Pokey, Summer Pudding, Gingerbread... and the list goes on. "Erm.. every single flavour please?!" It took me ages to settle on the ones I wanted but I finally went for Obamarama & Gingerbread.



Obamarama: Gosh! Peanut butter with swirls of jelly. Nothing can go wrong with this combination! Forget the trams! I'll walk here if I need to...

Gingerbread: I expected a strong gingery taste from this one but I was surprised by the bits of citrus peels between each lick. Taste just like Christmas :)

'Where's the ice-cream?' Ahh.. I knew that was coming. Being so caught up with the Obamarama, I realised that my ice-cream was gone before I could take a picture! But with or without a picture, get down to Jock's and give Obamarama a taste! I'll be there for seconds...

  5. SCREAM! (and a few other 'shriek snort giggle squeak' noises.) I love Jocks! I think that's one thing that makes me forgive this country for not having Puffins or Peanut Butter and Co.
    Almost.
    NOW WE CAN DEBRIEF ON FLAVORS!
    My entire life I have only ever eaten sorbets when I've been there ... don't ask me why. I had a lifelong fruit obsession. The green-apple-sorbet was delicious though, we might have to start rotating and trying every flavor they have =)
