Wine-flavored ice cream -- for adults only

Late last week we took at look at some sinfully delicious sounding Bourbon Ice Cream and a number of you weighed in with recipe ideas of your own. Now it seems as though a dairy in New York state has come up with wine-flavored frozen treats.

Available in three flavors -- Ala Port Wine, Peachy White Zinfandel and Red Raspberry Chardonnay -- Mercer's Ice Cream in Boonville, NY has been selling the frozen confection to restaurants in New York City and a marketing consultant for the company believes that the product could soon reach national appeal. The three new flavors join Mercer's already-existing line-up of 36 varieties.

These sumptuous treats aren't for children though, each pint contains the equivalent of one glass of wine.

I used the liquor to make the sugar syrup, which means that the alcohol is cooked out, leaving only the taste. It's the same kind of thing that happens when you make a rum cake or anything else subjected to heat for any length of time.
