\"Dairy<\/p>\n

What is it?<\/h3>\n

One of two returning Blizzards available on Dairy Queen\u2019s Summer 2018 Blizzard Menu. The S’mores Blizzard adds marshmallow-filled chocolates and graham pieces to vanilla soft serve. <\/p>\n

How is it?<\/h3>\n

Amazing, but I\u2019m a sucker for seasonal flavors. Be it Starbucks’ PSL, carrot cake, or whatever the heck flavor red velvet is, I\u2019m the reason flavor scientists can spend more time at the beach than in the lab. <\/p>\n

S\u2019mores in particular is a weakness of mine. Run out of new flavor ideas? Slap a seasonal clich\u00e9 on the package, and I\u2019ll devour it. Cookies, gum, hell if you made it smell good enough I\u2019d even think about it for a s\u2019mores deodorant.<\/p>\n

OK, maybe not, but if my Google-fu had returned a result, I\u2019d probably be wearing it right now.<\/p>\n

\"Dairy<\/p>\n

Back to the ice cream. The graham flavor extends beyond the chunks of cracker and is exquisitely infused into the vanilla base. Graham\u2019s golden-brown hue and gritty texture is a component of every bite. Pleasantly numerous, the milk chocolate candy is smooth and packed with gooey, marshmallow goodness. My wife says I\u2019m crazy, in this context not just<\/em> in general, but I swear I got a hint of a toasted marshmallow vibe. Maybe it was just a heavier graham presence on occasion that provided earthier notes.<\/p>\n

Is there anything else I need to know?<\/h3>\n

There\u2019s marshmallow topping mixed into the base as well, but it is overpowered by the graham and seems like an afterthought. If that\u2019s a draw for you, you will probably be disappointed by the graham-first flavor.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/h3>\n

\"Dairy<\/p>\n

This Blizzard has me begging for s\u2019more as it sets the standard for s\u2019mores-flavored ice cream. DQ nailed the rarely seen graham flavored base and, for me at least, conjured fond memories of the Hershey\u2019s S\u2019mores Candy Bar (R.I.P.) with the marshmallow filled chocolates.<\/p>\n
