Eating strawberries and cream at Wimbledon is a British summertime tradition and Marks & Spencer created a lush gin cream to elevate the classic pairing. The limited-edition Pink Gin Cream is made with a base of extra-thick cream that's blended with the brand's own best-selling Think Pink Gin and raspberry for a touch of blush color. As such, the new product is said to have a light berry flavor and offer a refreshing twist on a tried-and-true treat.
Seeing as the British multinational retailer is expecting to sell 12 million individual strawberries during the two-week tournament, this gin-infused "posh cream for strawberries" offers a sweet way to tap into the popularity of pink alcohol products.
