McAlister’s Deli’s ‘Sweet Tea Ice Cream’ has been created in collaboration with Creamalicious, an artisan ice cream brand. The new flavor boasts notes of Sugar Cookie and Lemon Swirl.
Starting on National Iced Tea Day (June 10) customers can “sweeten their summer” by purchasing a limited-time, exclusive pint of ‘Sweet Tea Ice Cream’ at McAlister's Deli's 500+ locations across America. Creamalicious will also sell the limited-edition taste on their website. The new ice cream pint marks the iconic beverage's first transformation into ice cream.
Inspired by a 2021 April Fools joke, the dessert is made with high-quality ingredients, no artificial flavors or coloring, and is churned with natural black tea. The pints will be sold for $7.99.
