Wine Ice Cream Will Soon Be Regulated by State
Clearing up a legal gray area, state lawmakers have passed a bill regulating the sale of frozen dessert products made with wine, permitting the sale of ice cream and sorbet to anyone over the age of 21. The bill limits the alcohol content to 5 percent by volume and requires warning labels – even though it would take two gallons of wine ice cream or one pint of wine sorbet to equal one glass of actual wine, according to upstate purveyor Jeff Kostic.
But what about beer ice cream? The new bill only regulates wine desserts, but Kostic – who co-owns Cayuga Lake Creamery in Interlaken – has been making a nut brown ale ice cream with an Ithaca brew. And wine sorbet has been readily available from the Greenpoint-based Wine Cellar for years now; the Times recommends dropping a scoop of Pinot Noir into a glass of sparking rosé for “perfect harmony.” Winos and sweet tooths will be able to savor the taste utopia without fear of legal repercussions once Governor Paterson to signs the bill into law.

So you're saying all I have to do is eat 25 gallons of this stuff to get totally wasted?
Dude, where can I buy it?

Ithaca Nut Brown is good beer. I'll have to try the ice cream when I get a chance.

I make my own Valium ice cream. One scoop equals ten milligrams. And the neighborhood kids love it! All I ever hear is:"I'll have two scoops, please."

Mary Ferguson was a 32 year old self professed lover of red wine. Unfortunately for Mary, red wine returned that love in the form of a nasty red wine film on her teeth and mouth. But she never let it bother her.. until the night she met Jack.
Sparks flew as Jack bellied up to the bar and ordered a big bodied bottle of red wine. This was love at first sight. Jack and Mary drank and danced the night away. And then, she did the unforgivable… She smiled. Her once pearly white teeth had morphed into a red stained filthy looking mouth. Jack tried to look away but couldn’t contain the disgust on his face. Mary quickly excused her self to the bathroom and maniacally attempted to scrub the wine off her mouth, but it was to no avail. Mary walked out of the bathroom with stained teeth and a newly chaffed tongue. By the time she returned, Jack had vanished, and left nothing for Mary but the bill… If she had only had a Wine Wipe.
Mary’s dilemma is common tale. Most red wine drinkers fall victim to this social fopah. Whether you call it ‘tannin teeth, malbec mouth, red badge of courage, or wine tattoo’, most red wine drinkers have experienced the unattractive dark film that red wine stain leaves on their smile. They have either excepted purple teeth as part of the experience or begrudgingly switched to Chardonnay… Until Now.

Wine Wipes quickly and easily remove red wine stain with a gentle orange blossom flavor that won’t interfere with the wine tasting experience, making Wine Wipes the perfect pairing to any glass of red wine,
