Strickland's can be counted on to commemorate every major holiday with a flavor of ice cream to match. And this year's Valentine's Day is no different. The lone outlet of this Ohio franchise is making two flavors tomorrow for all the lovers and lovers of ice cream out there: rose and red velvet.
For the red velvet, they swirl pieces of real velvet cake swirled into their vanilla. It's delicious. The rose flavor, I gather, will involve rose water and might be similar to what Persians call bastani.
Ah l'amour!
