A double scoop of outer space, please. 🍨🚀🌒
Howl at the Moon, the new, limited-edition Howling Cow ice cream flavor, is a truly stellar scoop that was created to honor NASA astronaut Christina Koch and her record-breaking trip around the moon. It has a cheesecake base with a blueberry and raspberry double swirl and pieces of graham cracker pie crust. Available while supplies last at Talley Student Union and the Howling Cow Dairy Education Center and Creamery.

Yesterday’s surprise @ncstatehowlingcow flavor launch had the Wolfpack ready for liftoff. 🚀🍦
At NASA astronaut and three-time NC State graduate Christina Koch’s homecoming celebration, Chancellor Kevin Howell surprised her with a limited-edition Howling Cow ice cream flavor created in her honor. The reveal of Howl at the Moon sent students running to the Howling Cow food truck, and Koch was just as excited to try it herself.
We’d like to thank our talented team at @fbnsncstate for creating a flavor that brought even more excitement to an out-of-this-world homecoming.
Christina Koch’s homecoming just got a whole lot sweeter. 🚀🍦
