Graeter's x New Riff Distilling Bourbon Ball Ice Cream has been created in collaboration between the frozen dessert brand and the Kentucky distillery as a sweet treat perfect for fans of rich, indulgent treats to try out. The ice cream is crafted with the namesake Southern candy product in mind and gives it a decidedly chilly overhaul with a swirl of New Riff single barrel Kentucky bourbon in the mix. The treat also features whiskey-glazed pecans and dark chocolate chips throughout to give the ice cream a flavor profile that fans of sweet treats are sure to savor.
Presitdent of New Riff Millie Lewis commented on the Graeter's x New Riff Distilling Bourbon Ball Ice Cream saying, "It’s the perfect blend of two great traditions. We couldn’t be more excited to partner with another local, family-owned business that shares our passion for craft and quality."
