The King said, “Do something worth remembering.” Many of Elvis’s songs, quotes, dance moves, and even food combos — like the peanut butter-banana-bacon sandwich — have survived generations.

Tipsy Scoop, a brand that combines artisanal cocktails and sweet treats, such as ice cream, and Elvis Whiskey, a Grain & Barrel collection dedicated to celebrating The King, have partnered up to create an ice cream that will continue Presley’s legacy. The Elvis Whiskey Midnight Snack ice cream is infused with peanut butter, banana, and bacon grease to commemorate The King’s favorite sandwich.

It launches in time for International Bacon Day, which is August 31.

The 16-ounce plastic pints of ice cream contain 5% alcohol and can only be consumed by individuals who are at least 21 years of age. The pint container has a waterproof, laminate sticker applied to the side displaying graphics from the Elvis Whiskey Midnight Snack bottle and other pertinent information for the consumer. You can order the ice cream pint online, with shipping nationwide.

The ice cream is also available at Tipsy Scoop barlours in 5-oz single scoops and 9-oz double scoops served in paper cups, as well as 20-oz boozy sundaes served in a keepsake glass container.

Each Elvis Whiskey bottle neck is labeled “TCB”, referencing the phrase used by Elvis and his Memphis Mafia, “Taking Care of Business.” Now, it’s time to see if the Midnight Snack whiskey and ice cream combo will leave consumers with a burning love for the boozy treat.
