She’s screaming over ice cream — for being too cold.

A New Jersey woman is suing Jet Blue over a “dangerously cold” ice cream sandwich she reckons broke her front tooth on an international flight, according to a new lawsuit.

Karla Quinonez, of Perth Amboy, was flying from New York City to Paris on Aug. 20 when crew members “failed to warn” her that the strawberry shortcake-flavored dessert was “frozen solid,” according to a federal lawsuit filed Tuesday.

As she bit down the treat, she cracked her upper left incisor — and had to get it pulled in an emergency dental procedure immediately after landing in France, according to the lawsuit, which was filed in New York Eastern District Court.

Quinonez is now feeling frosty towards the airline for allegedly “serving food at a temperature below what is reasonable or safe for consumption,” according to the suit, which accuses the crew of being “negligent.”

“The ice cream sandwich that [Jet Blue] served… was frozen solid and caused [her]  to sustain severe bodily injuries, including a root fracture of tooth number 10,” the suit proclaims.

The totally unchill situation ultimately caused her “pain, suffering, and mental anguish,” according to the lawsuit, which doesn’t note how much money she is seeking in damages.

The “chomp sized” ice cream sandwich was made by the Nightingale Ice Cream company and has been described by reviewers online as “absolutely delicious” and “never getting so hard that they’re tough to bite through.”

In June, Jet Blue was hit by another temperature-centric lawsuit — over “dangerously hot” tea that allegedly fell on a passenger during turbulence. In that case, the traveler sued for $1.5 million.

Jet Blue didn’t immediately return a request for comment Friday. Quinonez’s lawyer, Christopher Fraser, also didn’t return an inquiry from The Post.
