Get ready for the most Chicagoan collaboration ever: Oberweis Ice Cream and Dairy has teamed up with The Joffrey Ballet.
This partnership celebrates the 10th anniversary of two-time Tony Award®-winning choreographer Christopher Wheeldon’s The Nutcracker. To honor this milestone, Oberweis has crafted a brand-new, limited-edition ice cream flavor: Nutcracker Peppermint Swirl.

The Nutcracker Peppermint Swirl is a must-try flavor
Who says you can’t enjoy ice cream in the winter? We promise it’s worth a try.
The new Nutcracker Peppermint Swirl from Oberweis features rich, sweet sugar cookie ice cream, swirled with a festive crimson peppermint ribbon.
These festive new sweet treats will be available for purchase this December at all Oberweis scoop shops and at Lyric Opera House Chicago during performances of The Nutcracker, which runs through December 28, 2025.
