In the last year, the 75-year-old country music legend has won a Grammy Award, made a Super Bowl commercial, donated to the development of a coronavirus vaccine and even received her first dose of the vaccine. Now, she’s getting into ice cream.
This week, Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams announced that it would be releasing a new flavor in partnership with Parton.
