Snoop Dogg will be trading in his gin and juice for something a little more family-friendly this Fourth of July, and he’ll be sharing it with customers at select Costco stores nationwide.

The iconic Southern California-based hip-hop artist recently launched Snoopsicle, a new sorbet popsicle from Dr. Bombay, the cream shop founded by Snoop and his son Cordell Broadus.

Here’s what you need to know about Snoop Dogg’s signature popsicle.

Snoop Dogg’s first popsicle

Created by Snoop Dogg, Snoopsicles come in “Razd Out,” a combo flavor of raspberry, cherry, and lime sorbet. The packaging says it’s made with real fruit juice and no artificial colors.

Each box contains 24 bars and costs $14.99 at Costco, according to a video posted on Instagram.

A tribute to Snoop’s roots

According to the company’s website, Dr. Bombay is an homage to Snoop’s father, who grew up on a dairy farm in Mississippi “the old-fashioned way of hand-churning ice cream.” “There are no shortcuts, just patience, care and real ingredients.”

A few years later, Snoop and Broadus opened a scoop shop in Venice, California, selling their fruit-forward ice cream at Walmart and 7-Eleven.

In addition to Snoopsicle, the company’s first popsicle product, Bombay offers several other flavors, including Blueberry Muffin, Peanut Butter & Jelly, Strawberry Cream, Tropical Sorbet, Orange Cream, Caramel Apple, and Long Beach Fruit Cart, named after Snoop’s hometown about 40 miles south of Los Angeles.

“This is Legacy Remixed,” the company said on its website. “Creamy ice cream meets bold sorbet, nostalgia meets new energy, and every flavor is created to be a hit.”

“Because desire doesn’t just pass,” adds Dr. Bombay. “It’s part of the atmosphere.”
