JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Let your vote be sweeter than honey!

The Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp's alternate identity, the Honey Drippers, has been selected as a nominee for the "Best Alternate Identity 2025" award during the MiLB Award Show.

A honey dripper is a frozen dessert popular in the American South that can be traced to Jacksonville's Eastside neighborhoods.

The initial collaboration, Honey Dripper Weekend, aimed to highlight Alice Michele Kimbrough, a local teacher and the proclaimed "Honey Dripper Lady" who runs her own food truck selling the treat.

The Jumbo Shrimp say that the reception from the collaboration "garnered so much excitement and response from the fans" that the Honey Dripper was added to the menu at Vystar Ballpark to be served at all home games. Honey Drippers Weekend
