Mint chocolate chip is an ice cream flavor composed of mint ice cream with small chocolate chips. In some cases the liqueur crème de menthe is used to provide the mint flavor, but in most cases peppermint or spearmint flavoring is used. Food coloring is usually added to make it green, but it may be beige or white in "all natural" or "organic" varieties. Some brands name it chocolate (or choco) chip mint, mint 'n chip, or just mint chip. It is also known as peppermint bon bon, mostly in Minnesota, North Dakota and Wisconsin.
