October 6 has been a good day for Ben & Jerry’s trademark attorneys. On this date in 1987, the CHERRY GARCIA mark was first registered as a U.S. trademark for “ice cream.” Eleven years later, on October 6, 1998, the COFFEE COFFEE BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ mark was first registered as a U.S. trademark. Both marks are unsurprisingly registered for “ice cream.” The two registrations are both still in force, and the two flavors are both still delicious.
