Edy's Peppermint Ice Cream (Seasonal)

Edy's peppermint is a seasonal holiday flavor. Here is how to find it.

Updated Nov 1, 2026. Edited by: Ilyass Ben Hakim.

Where to buy

Supermarket freezer aisles carry it during the holiday season. In western states the same ice cream is sold as Dreyer's.

Professional insight

Grocery buyers treat peppermint as a short holiday run. Stock arrives late in the year and sells out.

Search the Dreyer's name if you live out west.
Slow Churned on the carton means the lighter recipe.
Ask the store's frozen manager about the next delivery.
Delivery apps show local stock better than brand sites.

Check the label

Edy's or Dreyer's brand name and peppermint flavor on the lid.
Line name, such as Slow Churned, and whether it is light.
Ice cream or frozen dairy dessert wording.
Carton size, such as 1.5 quarts or 48 oz.
Best by date on the carton bottom or side.
Allergen list for milk and any candy coloring or soy.
