Kawartha Dairy has a new flavour. And it's for The Hip.

Kawartha Dairy just dropped the coolest new flavour

You know, here's the thing about Peterborough, sometimes the big news isn't what's flowing down the Otonabee or what's damming up council. Sometimes, it's just pure, simple, good news that makes you feel connected to something bigger. And today, that something bigger comes in a cone. Our very own Kawartha Dairy, a staple around here — you see their trucks everywhere from the farmers' market at Morrow Park to every little corner store — they've just announced a partnership with The Tragically Hip for a brand new ice cream flavour.

This isn't just any ice cream, mind you. This is *The Tragically Hip* ice cream. Now, if you've ever spent a summer night by Little Lake in Del Crary Park, or driven up to the cottage in the Kawarthas with the windows down, you know the Hip are practically part of the air up here. Their music is the soundtrack to so many memories, so to see a local institution like Kawartha Dairy team up with such a Canadian icon? It just feels right, like the Trent-Severn system flowing exactly as it should. It’s a sweet, sweet tribute, and honestly, it’s going to be a must-try for anyone who calls this part of Ontario home.

### Why This Matters for Peterborough

* **Local Pride:** Kawartha Dairy is part of our identity. This partnership shines a national spotlight on a beloved local business. * **A Taste of Nostalgia:** For many, The Hip evokes summers, road trips, and Canadian identity. This ice cream connects us to those feelings. * **Community Connection:** It’s a talking point, something to share and bond over, whether you’re at the Lift Lock or walking along Hunter Street Bridge.

It’s more than just a dessert; it’s a celebration of Canadian culture, rooted right here in our backyard. It’s what happens when good things come together, like the tributaries feeding into the Otonabee. This is the Electric City — small town, big current. Let's go.

For a deeper dive into what makes this so special, let Keith and the gang walk you through it tomorrow morning, live at mornings.live.
