One example is Baskin Robbins in Korea. The American ice-cream franchise has more than 8,000 stores in 50 countries worldwide – and many of them have unique flavors that aren’t sold elsewhere!

What Is the Best Baskin Robbins Flavor?

Here are 7 must-try flavors you can only find at Baskin Robbins in Korea.

1. PUSS IN BOOTS

While the Korean name literally translated to “My mom is an alien”, this delicious ice-cream combines three types of chocolate (milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and white chocolate) in one delicious scoop! This flavor has been on the menu at Baskin Robbins in Korea for a long time and is a safe staple.

2. CHOCOLATE FOREST

If you like matcha green tea and chocolate, this flavor is going to be one of your must-tries! Chocolate Forest was the winner of the 2014 ice-cream contest, which allowed people to create their own flavors and vote for their favorite. Chocolate Forest has been on the regular menu of Baskin Robbins in Korea ever since.

3. HONEY CHEESE TRAP

This flavor is absolutely delicious with almond brittle, mascarpone cheese and honey. If you prefer natural flavors over some of the more crazy varieties, you should definitely give Honey Cheese Trap a try.

4. TWINBERRY CHEESECAKE

Chunks of delicious cheesecake mixed into a blueberry-strawberry base makes this fruity flavor. Twinberry Cheesecake is the perfect balance of fruit and cheesecake, making the flavor not too rich.

5. ZZON TTEOK ICE CREAM

Ever since this flavor came out as a monthly special, it’s been my favorite and is now part of the regular menu at Baskin Robbins in Korea. This flavor is basically a mix of black sesame and injeolmi (traditional Korean rice cake), making it a truly Korean delight. On top of that, there’s bits of rice cake and pecans, too!

6. GOOD LUCK

Another flavor I highly recommend trying at Baskin Robbins in Korea is Good Luck. nougat lovers are going to love this ice-cream flavor! The nougat base comes with crunchy caramelized almonds and delicious syrup.

7. PAPA & DAUGHTER ICE CREAM

This colorful flavor is the counterpart to “My mom is an alien” and consists of two kinds of strawberry ice-cream and vanilla ice-cream. Crunchy pink chocolate balls make for an interesting taste adventure in your mouth!

What Are the Baskin Robbins Sugar Free Ice Creams?

Obviously, there are options for those who want to reduce sugar consumption. One of the most popular is the premium pineapple and coconut ice cream shake (which is also reduced in fat).
