Wine Ice Cream. Yeah, it’s real. Have you heard of Mercer’s Wine Ice Cream ?
I came across a press release for Mercer’s Wine Ice Cream a few months ago and kept searching for it in local grocery stores and liquor stores. I couldn’t find it anywhere! I finally emailed the company and inquired about where I could find Mercer’s Wine Ice Cream – and it’s not sold in Florida!
It’s a travesty, I tell you!
I assume Mercer’s Wine Ice Cream isn’t sold in grocery stores because each pint contains 5 percent alcohol, and alcohol in ice cream is probably a lot harder to control going through the checkout line than an obvious bottle of wine.
For those of you lucky enough to live in a city where Mercer’s Wine Ice Cream is sold, you have the following flavors to choose from:
Cherry Merlot – ice cream with Bordeaux cherries blended with a Merlot wine
Chocolate Cabernet – chocolate ice cream with bits of bittersweet chocolate blended with a Cabernet wine filled with dried cherry & cassis notes
Peach White Zinfandel – ice cream with fresh peaches blended with a White Zinfandel wine distinguished for its fruity undertones and pleasant finish Port: Mercer’s premium ice cream blended with an award-winning Ruby Port wine appreciated for its rich, heavily-bodied flavor
Red Raspberry Chardonnay – Mercer’s premium ice cream blended with raspberry sauce and a Chardonnay wine known for its delicate vanilla nose and buttery smooth taste
Riesling – Mercer’s premium ice cream blended with a Riesling wine prized for its fruity, crisp refreshing quality
Sounds awesome, right? I am so sad that they aren’t selling Mercer’s Wine Ice Cream in Florida yet!

I’ve never heard of wine ice cream before. Sounds interesting!
Ohh!! Sounds wonderful!
I want this. Bad. I don’t think it’s sold in CA though either. 🙁
My goodness! They need to sell this in my area.
I’ve never heard of Wine Ice Cream before. SOunds like something my MIL would love!
I am not sure but the raspberry chardonnay sounds awesome!
That’s original! Not sold here.
A Canadian friend of mine found these in the grocery store earlier this year and tagged me in a photo of them on Facebook. I have yet to find them here in Vegas but need to remember to look more often!
OMG please tell me where your friend found this in Canada??? 🙂
I can’t decide if I like this idea or not!
Never heard of it before. And I’m with Liz, not sure if I like the idea of wine ice cream or not. 🙂
never heard of mercers wine ice cream before
Wow I have never heard of wine ice cream.
I realize this is an old posting but I did want to let you know that this is a local product from northern NY (dairy country), but it can be sold over the internet (go to their website). They are trying to expand their market (they actually sell it in several places)so if you can talk a local market into selling it then you are good to go! If you like wine – you would LOVE it! 🙂 BTW their regular ice cream & soft serve is to die for too!! Here is the link to the Wine ice cream home page…. http://www.mercersdairy.com
Please , please, please! We need you in So. CA!!!
Bring it to Cali where it can be appreciated
Wondering if sold in auburn Syracuse area
Recently had some of the Cherry Merlot at a little ice cream shop just outside Owego, NY. I’d never heard of such a thing, so just HAD to give it a try. It IS GREAT!! However, $4.00 for 2 scoops. So amazing this has slipped under the radar in stogy old NY, but isn’t available here in Florida! I should have brought some home with me!!!
