When you need both the comfort of a glass of wine and a bowl of ice cream, which one do you choose?
Well, fret no more because thanks to Häagen-Dazs' brand new Franken-cream creation, you can now enjoy both at the same time.
Häagen-Dazs brand manager Rachel Javien told INSIDER,
We're thrilled to launch the Häagen-Dazs Spirits Collection. It's an incredible combination of fine spirits and our rich, creamy ice cream to create the perfect indulgence.
In the words of Häagen-Dazs themselves
Introducing The Spirits Collection: 7 incredible combinations of the finest spirits and your favorite Häagen-Dazs® ice creams. With the best of both worlds, you don't have to decide how you will reward yourself, just which flavor you want most. Enjoy the perfect ice cream for every accomplishment because your best deserves our best.
Looks like we were right on the money about where the inspiration for this two-in-one treat came from!
Here are the incredibly delicious flavors they're offering:
Irish Cream Brownie
Irish Cream infused into our ice cream with rich chocolate brownie pieces and a decadent fudge swirl.
Rum Tres Leches
A Latin American-inspired indulgence, we infuse smooth white Rum into our ice cream then add thick ribbons of dulce de leche and chunks of sweet Tres Leches cake.
Bourbon Vanilla Bean Truffle
A classic pairing made even better, enjoy creamy vanilla bean ice cream dotted with chocolate truffles and swirled with spicy Bourbon.
Stout Chocolate Pretzel Crunch
Enjoy a pub-inspired indulgence. Rich chocolate ice cream is infused with Stout for notes of toasted malt, then mixed with crunchy chocolate covered pretzels and decadent fudge.
Bourbon Praline Pecan
Treat yourself to ice cream infused with smooth Bourbon sprinkled with brown sugar and given the perfect crunch with praline pecans.
Non-Dairy Amaretto Black Cherry Almond Toffee
Rich black cherry jam and sweet almond toffee pieces are folded into our non-dairy dessert that's infused with a nutty Amaretto.
A rich chocolate cookie topped with ice cream that's infused with Irish Cream before the entire square is dipped in decadent dark chocolate.
But how much alcohol is actually in these delectable desserts? Enough to get you a bit buzzed, or just a trace?
According to the company, these treats contain less than 0.5% alcohol by volume.
For reference, the alcohol by volume for beer is around 4.5%. It's around 11.6% for wine, and for liquor, it's around 37%, so 0.5% is really, really low.
Will you try these boozy ice creams, even if they don't pack an alcoholic punch?
Ummm…YES….my prayers have been answered!!
