Description
Ben & Jerry's Cherry ice cream with cherries and fudge flakes. It's our tribute to guitarist Jerry Garcia and his fans everywhere, and it all started with a piece of fan mail.
You see, back in the day, before smartphones and social media, our fans spoke to us via handwritten notes pinned to the bulletin boards at our Scoop Shops. It was sometime in 1986 when one such fan was persistent enough to mail a postcard to our main office in Burlington, Vermont. Super premium ice cream meets great guitar solos? It was genius, and Ben immediately began creating the iconic concoction.
Cherry Garcia debuted in 1987 and quickly became one of our top three most popular flavors. In fact, the first eight ice cream pints went straight to Mr. Garcia himself and were met with two thumbs up. As for the fan who sent the anonymous postcard? Our sleuths found her and thanked her with a trip to Vermont and a year's supply of Ben & Jerry's ice cream.
It's been a long, strange trip ever since, but what remains is Ben & Jerry's commitment to producing the world's best frozen desserts in the most responsible way possible. Like all of our flavors, Cherry Garcia is made with non GMO sourced ingredients, cage free eggs, and Fairtrade certified cocoa, sugar, and vanilla. Responsibly sourced packaging gets the goodness from our Vermont factory to your freezer.

Cherry Garcia is a good cherry ice cream. Not as good as the dark cherry from Thrifty, though. It has an ok amount of cherries and chocolate. What would make it better is more cherry flavor in the actual ice cream.
Basically the perfect pint of ice cream

After a long hard shift at my very easy job there’s nothing better than some blinkers and a pint of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream. I like the cherries in the ice cream because they feel healthy.

Literally my favorite ice cream. Ben & Jerry’s is my favorite ice cream brand and Cherry Garcia is always my go to. Every single time the texture is perfect, it’s packaged well, and it is the best tasting thing on this world. Serving size could be larger as now I have to buy myself two cartons after eating one in a single sitting. There are no lies either. Ben & Jerry’s is amazing at full transparency when it comes to their ingredients.

It’s one of my favorite flavors till this day. I already love when cherry season comes around, but i feel like this is the perfect makeup for it when cherry season is over. It has the right balance of cherries and chocolate. It’s also just enough in the container to enjoy a few times. Give it a try if you haven’t already.

Ben & Jerry’s is Vermonts finest ice cream. The Cherry Ice Cream with Cherries & Fudge Flakes is delicious. Serving size is one pint and that’s perfect for a quick ice team fix for two servings. I was not sure about the cherry and chocolate flakes but it was quite creamy and flavors meshed perfectly. I’m not a big ice cream fan but once in awhile I like an ice cream fix to satisfy my sweets craving.

Ben & Jerry’s Cherry Garcia is a flavor I keep coming back to—it’s fruity, creamy, and perfectly balanced. The texture is smooth and rich, with plenty of real cherry chunks and chocolate flakes in every scoop. It’s indulgent without being overly heavy, and the mix-ins are evenly distributed so you’re never digging for the good stuff. The packaging is classic Ben & Jerry’s—fun, colorful, and sturdy enough to keep the ice cream fresh after opening. I also love that they use quality ingredients like Fairtrade-certified cocoa and real cherries, which makes it taste more authentic. The taste is sweet but not overpowering—the creamy base pairs beautifully with the tart cherries and bittersweet chocolate. As for value, it’s definitely a treat, but the quality and generous amount of mix-ins make it worth the price compared to cheaper brands.

Love the “no moo” version of Cherry Garcia. The dairy doesn’t work for me. I wasn’t asked about a substitution. Thankful that Target refunded the money.
must-try for cherry and chocolate lovers!

Cherry Garcia is a creamy, fruity classic with real cherry chunks and rich fudge flakes. The cherry flavor is fresh, not artificial, and pairs perfectly with the bits of chocolate. It’s sweet, slightly tart, and well-balanced—a refreshing twist on indulgence. A must-try for cherry and chocolate lovers!

This is my absolute favorite ice cream. Love that it has bits of cherry and chocolate and that the ice cream part isn’t just plain vanilla it’s cherry vanilla. It’s smooth and creamy and no overly sweet.

The driver did not bother to let me know that they had left the order outside on an 80 plus degree day and when I went to just check because it seemed they were late.There, it sat and my ice cream was melted.How incredibly frustrating that they can't even bother to let you know that they've delivered the order!

When I’m not feeling in the mood for a fruit flavor instead of a chocolate dominant flavor, this is my go-to. The cherry ice cream makes a nice backdrop for the luscious chocolate chunks and bright cherries. Another classic flavor that should never be forgotten.
