Alcoholic ice cream treats have been around for a while, but actually getting drunk, or even a bit tipsy on them is a challenge, because, well, they aren’t very alcoholic. Enter, Buzz Pop Cocktails, a range of gourmet Italian sorbets that pack that punch you’ve been looking for.

Buzz Pop Cocktails are made from fresh fruits and premium liquors, but what really sets them apart from other boozy frozen treats is the alcohol content. While most so-called alcoholic ice creams have an alcohol content comparable to beer – around 4.5 percent ABV – Buzz Pop Cocktails are three times stronger, at 15 perent ABV, which means one is probably enough to get your head buzzing. They come in packs of eight, so you can get yourself hammered on ice-cream, although it will cost you.

Licking your way to a hangover is apparently a lot more expensive than just chugging booze. An eight-pack of Buzz Pop Cocktails will set you back US$99.99, and if you want them delivered to your door, you’ll have to cough up an extra $34.95 for shipping. The good news is that you’ll probably forget about all the money you burned after just a few licks.

The company behind Buzz Pop Cocktails is based in Las Vegas – somehow, that makes sense – but you can find the frozen treats at restaurants and shops around the country, and they’re also available for order online. They are currently available in eight delicious flavors – Pink Paradise, Southern Belle, Blueberry Mania, Mango Passion Fruit, Caribbean Breeze, Moscow Mule, Watermelon Patch, and Lemon Drop Martini – but the company claims to have a total of 75 flavors in rotation throughout the year.

And if you’re worried about all the nasty calories, you can rest easy, each Buzz Pop Cocktail reportedly has just 100 calories. Lots of booze and low-calorie content? What’s not to like?

Apart from Buzz Pop Cocktail, there are plenty of strange-flavored ice creams that are available on the market. For example the Black Coconut Ash, better known on Instagram as black ice cream, is a new treat that will leave your tongue and lips black. The spicy ice cream is so spicy that anyone who wants to try it must be over age 18. In Japan there is a kind of ice cream that doesn’t melt. By using polyphenol found in strawberry, researchers can keep a popsicle from melting for hours, on a hot summer day.

Ice cream ramen

Ice cream ramen - algae jelly ‘noodles’ sitting in a ‘soup’ made from condensed milk - is one of the wackiest Instagram food trends yet. Called the ‘Ice Stream’ by its creators, the dish is created using ‘noodles’ that are made from Kanten, a traditional Japanese jelly that’s actually formed from algae and while they’re usually colourless. They are offered in variety of flavours from green tea milk to honey and brown sugar.

酒精冰淇淋早就有了，但吃酒精冰淇淋吃到醉就比较困难了，因为酒精冰淇淋的酒精含量一般都不高。来尝尝气泡鸡尾酒精冰淇淋吧，这道意大利美食就是你一直在寻找的那种冷饮。

气泡鸡尾酒精冰淇淋由新鲜水果和高级酒精饮料制成，但让它有别于其他酒精冰淇淋的则是它的酒精含量。大多数所谓的酒精冰淇淋的酒精含量和啤酒差不多——酒精度约为4.5%，而气泡鸡尾酒精冰淇淋的酒精度是普通酒精冰淇淋的三倍——酒精度为15%，这意味着只要吃上一个，你的头就会发晕。每包有8个冰淇淋，这样你光吃冰淇淋就可以让自己酩酊大醉，只不过得花上一笔。

吃冰淇淋吃到宿醉显然比喝酒买醉贵得多。一包8个装的气泡鸡尾酒精冰淇淋要价99.99美元（647元人民币），如果你想送货上门，你还要多花34.95美元的运费。好消息是，吃上几口冰淇淋，你很可能就会把钱的事忘得一干二净。

气泡鸡尾酒精冰淇淋的生产商位于美国拉斯维加斯——这倒是说得通——但你在美国各地的餐馆和商店也能买得到，你还可以在网上订购。目前在售的有8种口味——粉色天堂、南方美人、疯狂蓝莓、激情芒果、加勒比清风、莫斯科骡子、片片西瓜和柠檬马提尼，但是该公司声称一共有75种口味，一年内定期轮换。

如果你担心热量过高的话，可以放心了，每个气泡鸡尾酒精冰淇淋据说只有100卡路里。酒精又多热量又低，是不是很完美呢？

除了气泡鸡尾酒精冰淇淋，市场上还有很多味道更加奇葩的冰淇淋。例如黑色椰子灰冰淇淋，也就是Ins网友所熟知的黑色冰淇淋，会让你的舌头和嘴唇都变得黑黑的。还有辣味冰淇淋，辣椒味冰淇淋辣到什么程度呢？想吃的人必须年满18岁。日本还出现了不化冰淇淋，研究人员利用草莓中的多元酚让冰淇淋在炎炎夏日中放上几个小时也不会融化。 (Chinadaily.com.cn)
