Brooklyn's Ample Hills Creamery Releases 'Gilmore Girls' Ice Cream
Crack open a pint — of ice cream — while you watch the Netflix revival of a TV classic.

BROOKLYN, NY — It's time to plop down on your couch, queue up "Grey Gardens," order way too much Chinese food and celebrate the return of "Gilmore Girls" with its very own ice cream flavor.
The folks at Brooklyn's Ample Hill Creamery — born in Prospect Heights in 2011 and now headquartered in Gowanus — have the final step covered, thanks to their new "They Scoop Gilmores, Don't They?" flavor of ice cream. The ice cream is coffee flavored, obviously, with chocolate pudding and pink Pop-Tart-inspired sprinkles. The chocolate pudding inspiration comes from the Season 1 episode in which Lorelai tells her mother to "think pudding" when finding a birthday gift for Rory.
You can order the ice cream in any of Ample Hills' four permanent shops in the city, 24 locations in New York where it's sold or online.

They also will be selling it in a four-pack, with the title "Where You Lead, I Will Marshmallow," which is a better name for the flavor in our estimation. The four-pack comes with two of the "Gilmore Girls" flavor, one marshmallow and one pumpkin flavored.
Ample Hills is no stranger to the world of TV-inspired desserts. The ice cream shop, which opened in Prospect Heights in 2011, has previously created flavors based on "Breaking Bad," "Mad Men" and "The X-Files."

The Gilmore Girls revival, "Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life," will debut on Netflix on Nov. 25 (one day after Thanksgiving). The original show went off the air in May 2007.
The pint's artwork, Lorelai and Rory hanging out at Luke's Diner, was designed by Ample Hills art director Lauren Kaelin.
