The Ice Cream Bar An ice cream bar is a frozen dessert on a stick or a candy bar that has ice cream in it. The coating is usually a thin layer of chocolate.

 by leading Scientists, formulations and methods of manufacturing stabilize the alcohol molecule preventing it from interacting with the ice crystals and milk proteins found in ice cream. This makes it possible to combine real liquors and liqueurs with ice cream for a frozen, solid ice cream which can be held for up to a year, and still maintain superior taste and texture.

Blend's(R) have been introduced in Northern Wisconsin. A wide variety of Wisconsin on-premise and off-premise retailers including bars and restaurants, grocery stores, convenience stores, exclusive liquor stores, and casinos will be the first to carry the adult ice cream product. Blend's(R) will be available throughout the state shortly. To get Blend's(R), just request it from your local retailer.

Blend's(R) has the same texture as ice cream and is handled in the same way. The Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms Noun 1.

) have determined that Blend's(R) is distilled spirits because it is intoxicating. Therefore it can only be sold to and consumed by legal adults. The ATF and FDA have determined that it can't be called "ice cream," for marketing purposes. Initially Blend's(R) will be available in nine classic ice cream drink flavors -- in single serve 100mL containers and three flavors in 100mL ten-packs. This will be followed by larger metric sizes and additional flavors. A patent on the elusive secret stabilization process is pending.

The product carries a GOVERNMENT WARNING like all other beverage alcohol products -- and it has additional warnings alerting consumers that while it looks like ice cream it isn't, it's distilled spirits. Prior to Blend's(R) commercial production, long-term storage and transportation were not possible. Blend's(R) uses the same recipes followed by America's finest bars and restaurants: quality liquors and liqueurs in rich, ice cream. What differentiates Blend's(R) from the milk-shake consistency drinks now available is: Blend's(R) is solid like ice cream when you want it to be; Blend's(R) will be available in thirty classic flavors (i.e. Grasshopper grasshopper, name applied to almost 9,000 different species of singing, jumping insects in two families of the order Orthoptera. Grasshoppers are long, slender, winged insects with powerful hind legs and strong mandibles, or mouthparts, adapted for chewing. , Brandy Alexander, Pink Squirrel, etc.); and, Blend's(R) can be stored for use when you are ready to enjoy!

Ice cream drinks are uniquely American inventions; invented in the 1920's by American bartenders from the original Irish Cream recipe of 1/2 whiskey and 1/2 cream. Blend's(R) is the only solid ice cream type distilled spirits product available in the World. Blend's(R) are regulated by ATF and pays both Federal (FET FET: see transistor.
