Alcohol-Saturated Sweets

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The DIY Guinness Brownies are Liquored Up

— June 17, 2012 — Lifestyle
Now more than ever our favorite sugary sweets continue to be infused with liquors of various sorts and vintages. Here's another spirit-infused splendor to add to the list: the DIY Guinness Brownies. These will make your favorite man weep with joy and burst ecstatically with emotion, as they combine two favored food groups: sugar and alcohol.

This recipe uses easily one of the best dessert foods of all time and remixes some Dublin-made Guinness ale into the mixture. Even if you're not a big drinker, these brownies are sure to be a hit at the next family bash, BBQ or party. They're also great for St. Paddy's Day as they boast authentically Irish beer within. One recipe only calls for about one cup of Guinness, so while you're making these Guinness brownies, pour the rest into a glass and enjoy -- and later enjoy your brew in brownie form.
Trend Themes
1. Spirit-infused Sweets - Opportunity for food and beverage companies to create innovative desserts infused with different types of liquors, appealing to consumers looking for unique flavor experiences.

3. Beer-based Desserts - Opportunity for breweries and dessert shops to collaborate and create beer-inspired desserts, catering to beer lovers and expanding their product offerings.

3. Craft Beer and Dessert - Breweries and dessert shops can form partnerships to create beer-based desserts, attracting new customers and enhancing the overall dining experience.
