Davey's Ice Cream Infused with Angry Orchard Rose Hard Cider
New York Ag Connection - 07/13/2018

Angry Orchard Cider Company and New York City-based Davey's Ice Cream have teamed up for National Ice Cream Day (July 15) to give the classic ice cream scoop a hard cider twist with this year's hottest new drink, Angry Orchard Rose hard cider1.

The frozen dessert holiday comes at the perfect time of year when the temperatures are rising and a cold pick-me-up is a necessity. Inspired by Angry Orchard Rose cider, the team at Davey's Ice Cream worked closely with Angry Orchard Head Cider Maker Ryan Burk to develop two mouthwatering recipes meant to be savored on a hot summer day.

- Rose CreamCider: Your Rose cider creamsicle dreams have come true. This refreshing flavor swirls Davey's signature homemade Sweet Cream Ice Cream base with an Angry Orchard Rose cider-infused sorbet. The result: a perfect taste combination of rich, sweet ice cream with bright, delicious apple sorbet.

- Pine-Apple Hibiscus Rose Sorbet: A vibrant sorbet flavor that takes your taste buds on a tropical getaway. Starting with Angry Orchard Rose cider as the base, the recipe incorporates fresh pineapple juice and hibiscus to enhance the natural fruit and floral notes in the cider. This vivid, rosy-hued sorbet is as equally refreshing as it is drool-worthy.

To kick off the National Ice Cream Day celebrations, Rose CreamCider and Pine-Apple Hibiscus Rose sorbet will be available at select Davey's Ice Cream locations on July 13 to 15 and at the Angry Orchard in Walden, N.Y., on July 15, while supplies last.

"We are always looking for refreshing and unexpected ways for drinkers to enjoy cider," says Ryan Burk, head cider maker at Angry Orchard. "For National Ice Cream Day, we wanted to see if we could deliver the essence of our Rose cider in the form of a cool treat and found a great partner in Davey's, whose passion for innovative and unique ingredients resonates in each of the recipes we've crafted together."

For over 20 years, the cider making team at Angry Orchard has been experimenting with ingredients and techniques to give drinkers new ciders that are complex and balanced. Angry Orchard is committed to creating ciders using high-quality ingredients, including Rose, which is made with rare red flesh apples from France. Similarly, Davey's Ice Cream has been crafting distinctive, one-of-a-kind flavors since 2013 that New Yorkers can't get enough of.

"Davey's Ice Cream is dedicated to making ice cream the right way: no frills, no fuss, just churning out classic American ice cream hand-crafted by real people using real ingredients," says David Yoo, owner of Davey's Ice Cream. "As we team up with Angry Orchard this summer, we look forward to continuing age-old culinary traditions through our creative approach to making each lick of Rose CreamCider and Pine-Apple Hibiscus Rose sorbet a memorable experience."

Quantities are limited. Flavors will be available while they last. The ice cream/sorbet contains alcohol, and you must be at least 21 years old to enjoy.
