The team at Good Good Culture Club and Liholiho Yacht Club enjoy sharing their #heritagedriven cooking with their guests. And we’re thrilled to collaborate with them on a new ice cream, featuring their favorite flavors of steeped fresh pandan leaves, with hints of coconut, almond, and vanilla, complemented by a bright mango curd swirl. #GetJag #ShowUsYourScoops
For years we’ve shared the kitchen with Chef Ravi and the talented teams from Liholiho Yacht Club and Good Good Culture Club at many a fundraising dinner. They brought their heritage cooking and lively atmosphere to every event, and it was exhilarating. It felt like family, one we were grateful to be a part of, for any period of time.
Eschewing many industry standards, Liholiho and Good Good transformed their business model over the past few years, cultivating a culture of equity, inclusion, and transparency. There’s so much to admire and love about their work, their restaurants, and their food (read more here), so naturally we couldn’t wait to collaborate with them to create a new ice cream flavor.
Heritage-driven cooking is personal. It’s about the intersection of cultures, and we had fun brainstorming calls, emails, and group tastings of various test batches before we finally landed on the magical combination of pandan and mango. We begin by steeping pandan leaves with the sweet cream base which enhances the natural coconut, almond, and vanilla notes (and tones down pandan’s natural grassiness). Then we add a depth of flavor and a fruity, fragrant punch with a bright, creamy swirl of mango curd. It’s tropical, transformative, and available for a limited time.
Where to find Pandan Mango Swirl: the ice cream is available at the Creamery in scoops and pints, at both Bi-Rite Market locations in pints, and available for delivery on Instacart.
Meyer lemon and rosemary have been a constant on the celebrated State Bird Provisions menu, and we were excited to collaborate with Nicole Krasinski and Stuart Brioza to combine those flavors with our ice cream.
