A US company has invented wine-infused ice-cream, reports The Age. Mercer’s wine-infused ice cream actually contains up to 5% alcohol by volume, setting it apart from the ‘wine-flavoured’ ice cream already on the market. The game-changing invention comes in seven different flavours — Cherry Merlot, Chocolate Cabernet, Peach White Zinfandel, Port, Red Raspberry Chardonnay, Spiced, Riesling and Strawberry Sparkling — and brings a whole new meaning to the words ‘dessert wine’.
The bad news is that the ice cream is currently only available in upstate New York. International vendors are in the works, however. Although you need proof of age to buy the products, Mercer’s maintain that you can’t actually get drunk on the stuff.
We think they underestimate just how much we love ice cream.
