A brand new vegan ice cream flavor for kids of all ages, Fruity Pop Pepita Milk Ice Cream, will be released at all The Hop locations Tuesday, March 21st and remain in rotation thereafter!!! It’s the vegan version of Unicorn Poop Ice Cream and is a wild berry pepita milk base with a natural purple swirl and fruity popping pearls, the ones offered in drinks at Pop Bubble Tea.

Pop’s vision is to provide authentic, playful, high-quality bubble tea while supporting the Asheville community and uplifting Asian culture. Its multi-cultural team of Eva Peterson and Ashley Garrion is a wonderful example of the collaboration between Eastern and Western experience and knowledge. In keeping with that, Pop’s menu contains loose tea leaf and many toppings sourced directly from Taiwan as well as many sourced locally or made in house. Milk teas, Pop’s most popular menu item, are made with whole or oat milk, and tapioca is cooked daily for the ideal QQ texture. Lots of vegan options too! Free WiFi.

"The Hop is by far our favorite ice cream place in Buncombe County. We love their homemade ice cream varieties, friendly atmosphere & the support they give to the community..."
