Mr Tipsy is an alcoholic ice cream brand and its playful packaging uses a different character to bring each unique flavor to life. While Rum Forrest, Rum is a flavor that shows a high-action fruit with a sweatband, Ello Limoncello pictures a citrus fruit with a musical instrument. The vibrant flavors come in between 5% and 10% ABV, with Tequiline Me Softly sitting on the high end.
These alcohol-infused products include a unique way to experience everything from rosé wine and tequila to vodka. While Is This the Way to Amaretto combines a creamy base of amaretto ice cream with vanilla, Don't Pimms Me Off shares the fresh and fruity flavors of mint, Pimms, berries, vodka and lime juice.
