Soneva, the world-leading luxury resort operator, has added between four to six limited edition flavours to each of its resort’s line-up of unusual and unique ice cream flavours in honour of World Ice Cream Day on July 21. This year Soneva has developed 15 new flavours across Soneva Fushi, Soneva Jani and Soneva Kiri. These flavours will only be available for the next 12 months, after which they will change. This is in addition to the rotating roster of flavours at each resort.

Guests at Soneva Fushi’s So Cool can sample the new Popcorn, Rosemary Honey, Papaya Lime sorbet, and Blackcurrant sorbet flavours. While at Soneva Jani’s So Cool, Toasted Coconut, Sonu’s Sugar Free Strawberry sorbet, and Rocket and Lime sorbet join the broad range of flavours. At Soneva Kiri’s So Chilled Peanut Butter and White Chocolate Chip, Madagascar Vanilla and Bourbon, Coconut and Thai Basil, and the plant-based Pandan Salted Caramel will be added to the extensive list.

As plant-based and low sugar options for desserts are gaining popularity around the world, Soneva Kiri leads the way when it comes to ice creams and sorbets. Guests can expect a range of health boosting sorbets that contain no refined sugar, instead Manuka honey, agave, or coconut sugar is used as a substitute. Expect cooling sorbets such as Antioxidant Supreme (blueberries, strawberries and mango) and Total Health Boost (apples, pears, spearmint and cherries). The former harnesses the anti-aging properties of these berries and fruits, while the latter contains vitamins A, B, C, and E, strengthens bones and promotes younger looking skin.

When it comes to plant-based ice creams, the chefs at Soneva Kiri use coconut, almond or cashew milk as the base. All the additional ingredients are plant-based and gluten-free. Flavour combinations such as Dark Chocolate and Creamy Avocado, Peppered Strawberry and Anise, and Gingerbread Chocolate Chunk are just some of the new plant-based ice creams that will be available at So Chilled.

Soneva is known for its complimentary ice cream parlours; specifically for how many flavours are on offer and for the unusual flavour combinations. Guests will find flavours such as Rocket Leaf Sorbet, Garlic and Honey, Pineapple and Chili Sorbet among Salty Caramel, Roast Banana, and Pistachio Milk in the ever-changing ice cream parlours of Soneva Jani and Soneva Fushi. Both Soneva Jani and Soneva Fushi frequently use ingredients that are grown in the resorts’ organic gardens as well as those that are native to countries in and around the Indian Ocean. At Soneva Kiri in Thailand the ice cream parlour has Thai inspired flavours such as Thai Tea, Taro, Tom Kar Mushroom, and Coconut Coriander. Other flavours include Tutti Frutti, Caramel Almond and Cookie ice cream.
