Can boozy ice cream get you drunk?

Some of them pack a kick, and I've always wondered how many of them it'd take before I felt any effects from the alcohol. Turns out you'd have to eat a traumatic amount of them before you felt any effects from the alcohol whatsoever. HuffPost took a look. Ice cream containing alcohol is nothing new, but demand for it during this past terrible year has gone up. New York State's regulation says that liquor-infused ice cream is food if it's less than 5% alcohol by volume. Maryland-based Arctic Buzz manages to pack up to 9% in some of its ice cream. Putting alcohol in ice cream does come with its technical challenges. "Alcohol depresses the freezing point and makes ice cream soft, so if too much is added, the ice cream will become too soft and have a very short shelf-life," An average beer contains about 5% ABV, so putting that much alcohol in a pint of ice cream would be a fairly technical challenge. "You would have to eat a lot of ice cream to be the equivalent of two to three standard drinks," So while the final answer is that you probably can't get drunk off of alcoholic ice cream, still, be mindful and enjoy it responsibly. Everyone's different. If you plow down a pint on an empty stomach, you might feel the effects, especially if you're not a regular drinker. So while the final answer is that you probably can't get drunk off of alcoholic ice cream, still, be mindful and enjoy it responsibly.
