Alas, after just one year on the market, Kind Frozen Ice Cream has been discontinued. Fortunately, they still make Kind Frozen Bars and Smoothie Bowls. For frozen dessert pints still on the market, see our Dairy-Free Ice Cream Reviews.
What, Kind makes ice cream? Yes, in fact Kind Frozen Ice Cream pints began appearing in grocery stores a few months ago! You didn’t hear about it? That’s because Kind insists they aren’t “releasing” the new line until summer. They’re ignoring the buzz and the early store sightings, and waiting until they feel good and ready to make a formal announcement. But we did some reconnaissance, and uncovered the details on Kind’s full line of vegan almond milk pints.

My new favorite
The pints are really delicious and creamy. The pear juice gives it a nice background. It’s not too fruity but it makes it a little more complex with a little bit of tartness too. If you were the kind of person who liked a really good frozen yogurt, you’ll probably like this.
The peanut and chocolate bar tastes just like a snickers ice cream bar.
Healthy, Plant Based, tastes very good, delicious!
Except for Pistachio, Strawberry and Cherry Cashew have tried the others and love them. It satisfies the desire for ice cream, cold, consistency and taste. I started with Coffee Hazelnut and immediately liked it and love it but I love hazelnut and coffee. I recommend these products to everyone. My husband also loves them his favorite chocolate. Forgot have not tried Dark Chocolate/Peanut Butter mainly because I do not eat peanut butter.
These taste terrible
My boyfriend and I have tried every flavor and they are all bad. They have a strange texture. They leave a bad aftertaste. The pistachio one has a fishy taste. All flavors seem to leave a residue in your mouth. Do not recommend at all.
The best dairy free ice cream ever!
The best I’ve ever had. It’s delish!
Best Vegan Ice Cream Around
This is by far the best vegan ice cream I have had.
Loved this tasty treat I didn’t have to make!
I have only tried the coffee hazelnut because I always like mocha almond fudge when I did dairy. It was so good! The hazel nuts really made it yummy and the little chocolate swirl was perfect! Don’t expect it to have ice cream consistency but it is a great frozen treat! I’ll try another flavor next trip to the store. Plant based rules!
And now my stomach is woozy
The texture doesn’t give a proper follow-through. The Cherry Cashew flavor was more cashew, low in cherry flavor… just very bland. I would not recommend it. And now my stomach is woozy.
Dark chocolate and peanut butter
I let the ice cream sit out for 30 minutes and it did not soften. I had to use a knife instead of an ice cream scoop to get the ice cream out of the container. The ice cream was not creamy or smooth but had a granular taste to it. Had not tase of peanut butter at all. I threw it out. Very disappointing.
It’s terrible
It had this terrible feel in your mouth, I threw it away
Disappointing
I really wanted to love this, but it just doesn’t come close to other non-dairy ice cream options out there. I tried the pistachio flavor first since I’d never seen this flavor in a vegan version before and it was my favorite back when I used to eat dairy. The taste was disappointing, though. It was way too salty and not very creamy at all. But I thought I’d give the product another shot, so I tried the coffee hazelnut. The taste was just okay, but again, not creamy. In fact, it had a hard, icy texture and kept breaking up into little pieces. Won’t be buying again.
