ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., Oct. 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Eat ice cream. Support culture. It's that simple with Culture Republick™, the first premium light ice cream brand with probiotics on a mission to support culture both inside and out. Beyond having live probiotic cultures in the ice cream, the brand aims to support culture in everything it does. The new brand collaborates with emerging artists to design each pint, giving these artists a new canvas for their work, complete with their signature and information on pack. Additionally, 10 percent of the brand's profits will support the arts in local communities, with all charitable donations made possible by the Unilever Foundation.
"Culture Republick was created with a distinct purpose in mind," said Leslie Miller, Marketing Director of Ice Cream at Unilever. "We believe that humanity could use a bit more brightness. By combining our passions for culture and ice cream, we intend to do our part in making people feel more balanced, inspired and connected."
Culture Republick is currently available in seven unique flavors and is the first premium light ice cream brand with probiotics. Each pint contains three billion live active cultures, 400 – 500 calories, 16 – 18 grams of protein, 11 – 12 grams of fiber and no artificial sweeteners. The unexpected flavor combinations include:
- Milk & Honey
- The new classic. A low-key luxurious sweet cream light ice cream swirled with wildflower honey.
- Pack art by Joe Geis, an artist, designer and woodworker based in Brooklyn. Joe's artwork is all about movement and balance.
- Turmeric Chai & Cinnamo
- Oddly addictive. Turmeric blended with a chai spice light ice cream with swirls of cinnamon streusel.
- Pack art by Sarah Dewlin, a Brooklyn-based artist who specializes in unique geometric shapes and compositions, with natural edges and organic imperfections.

- Pistachio & Caramel
- Sophisticated nuts. Real chopped pistachios in a pistachio light ice cream, with added swirls of salty caramel.
- Pack art by Teri Kaplan Trigalo, a creative content director based in NYC. Born in South Africa, Teri has been painting ever since she could hold a brush, now creating large-scale abstract pieces inspired by her surroundings.

- A revolutionary alliance. Bringing matcha tea into ice cream, balancing the green tea flavor with real cane sugar, fresh cream and swirls of fudge for tea-inspired decadence.
- Pack art by Fiona Chinkan, a visual artist based in Brooklyn, who uses lines and forms to express herself and interpret the world around her. Her style pulls inspiration from the embellishments of graffiti writing.
