Russian ice cream craze 俄罗斯冰激凌热

A Russian ice cream craze has taken off this year as trade between the countries got a major push, and Chinese consumers became more aware of products from their northern neighbor.

随着两国贸易联系不断加强，今年国内掀起一股俄罗斯冰激凌热，国内消费者也开始关注来自邻国的冰激凌产品。

It got an even bigger boost when Russian President Vladimir Putin gave President Xi Jinping a gift of the frozen treat during the G20 Summit in Hangzhou on Sept 4 and 5.

今年9月4日至5日G20杭州峰会期间，俄罗斯总统普京向习近平主席赠送冰激凌之后，这股热潮进一步增强。
