The all-new Miller High Life Ice Cream Dive Bars were created in collaboration with boozy ice cream brand Tipsy Scoop and they beer-infused ice creams actually boast 5% ABV. Made with Miller High Life, these adult ice cream bars feature peanut swirls that pay homage to a quintessential dive bar snack. There's also a "hint of tobacco smoke flavor" and a gooey caramel swirl which is intended to mimic that "distinct sticky dive bar floor feeling." Furthermore, carbonated candy is sprinkled into the mix to recreate the fizziness of freshly poured beer.
This new frozen treat from Miller High Life joins a wave of unexpected flavors that are popping up across the category and satisfying consumer desires for the new and unusual, yet familiar in new formats.
