The third season of Ted Lasso is on the way, with a release date of March 15th.  And I'll admit, I'm excited about it!  I actually just started re-watching season 1 the other day.  Mainly just to have something to distract me while on the treadmill.  But also just because it's a fun show.  As a fan of the show, I was excited to see there's a Ted Lasso inspired ice cream on the way!

Jeni's Ice Cream

I will admit, I have never had Jeni's Ice Cream.  But based on this article from Mashed, the brand is known for delicious, and sometimes crazy, flavors. And according to Jeni's website, they "build ice creams completely from scratch using a unique recipe honed and perfected over more than 20 years" by the founder, Jeni Britton.

Ice Cream Flavors

Jeni's website highlights the unique, smooth texture and buttercream body, with "bright flavor and clean finish."  Their goal is to set new standards for ice cream classics and create their own.

And it seems they have created quite a few of their own unique flavors. The flavors are inspired by their curiosities, which include art, history, pop culture, and more. This passion has led to a team up with Ted Lasso for a new flavor!

Ted Lasso Inspired Ice Cream

When you learn the name of the new Ted Lasso inspired ice cream, it makes sense!  From one of the first episodes, Ted Lasso starts "Biscuits With The Boss." And that is the name of this new collaboration.

It's described as "crumbly shortbread cookies in buttery sweet cream. Salty, mouthwatering, conversation-worthy."

The flavor is set to release on Thursday, March 2nd.

Where To Find Jeni's

As someone who's never had Jeni's ice cream, I wanted to make sure we had a place to buy it before I teased you with the new flavor.  Although... they do deliver nationwide, apparently.

From the Jeni's website, it looks like many Kroger and Publix locations in the Augusta/Evans area carry the brand.  And it looks like Fresh Market does as well.

So if you're looking for a sweet treat to enjoy while gearing up for season 3, be on the lookout for the new Ted Lasso inspired ice cream from Jeni's!


‘Ted Lasso’: Apple Announces Spring Release For Season 3

Apple announced that its smash hit series, Ted Lasso, is coming back for its third season this spring! Ted Lasso kicked off back in 2020 and immediately won the hearts of soccer fans, and really, anyone with a soul. The American coach, played by Jason Sudeikis, has a sweet disposition and became an immediate fan favorite.

Per Variety, during the Television Critics Association’s winter 2023 press tour, there was a panel that featured Ted Lasso co-creator Bill Lawrence and writer/star Brett Goldstein promoting their upcoming comedy series Shrinking. When asked about Ted Lasso during the panel, Lawrence was tight-lipped but said, “I’ve seen cuts, and it’s f---ing amazing.”

People reports that season 3 will introduce two new characters: Girls' Becky Ann Baker will portray Ted's mom, and Jodi Balfour, best known for her role in the Apple TV+ series For All Mankind, will play a venture capitalist. They also report that there will be "new blood" on the AFC Richmond team.

Here is what we know about this new season so far:

No trailer has dropped yet, but an image from the season has!

This intense standoff between Nate and Lasso gives us just a taste of what to expect coming up.

We don’t have an exact date of release...

All we know is that it comes out in the spring. Fingers crossed that they mean early spring rather than late spring because we cannot wait!

(SPOILER) Last season, Nate left AFC Richmond in the dust.

This was QUITE the cliffhanger. We are excited to see how this pans out. An epic Nate and Ted showdown may occur. Would that be awesome? Or upsetting? We can't be sure.

Is this the last season?

Its' worth noting that Apple TV+'s season three announcement did not include the words "final season.” It's been widely reported that the series was intended to have just three seasons. Brett Goldstein has gone on record saying as much. So you're saying that there's a chance it might go on longer? Maybe not; in June, Brett Goldstein, who plays Roy Kent and serves as a writer on Ted Lasso, said that the show's third season would be its swan song. He told the public that Ted Lasso was always going to be “just three.” You never know, though. As we mentioned before, Ted Lasso is a smash hit. How can they take it away from us like this? Perhaps their time isn’t up just yet.

Regardless, grab the biscuits, because more Ted Lasso is on the horizon.
