What could be better than Margarita ice cream?

National Tequila is here. It’s the perfect day for shots of Blanco tequila with salt and lime or a Margarita or three. Also, since it takes place in July, it’s the perfect time for some tequila-infused ice cream. It seems like just a dream, right? Thanks to a partnership between Matthew and Camila McConaughey’s Pantalones Organic Tequila and boozy ice cream brand Tipsy Scoop, that dream is officially a reality.

Pantalones Peaches & Cream Margarita Ice Cream

Just in time for the heat of July and National Tequila Day, Pantalones Organic Tequila and Tipsy Scoop are releasing Pantalones Peaches & Cream Margarita Ice Cream. This limited-edition ice cream will be available beginning July 22 and is made with fresh peach ice cream infused with Pantalones Organic Tequila and tangy lime. According to the brand, the result is a creamy, sweet, lightly tart, tequila-forward ice cream guaranteed to cool you off on the hottest summer days.

“Most margaritas are served on the rocks. This summer, we’re deciding to serve ours by the scoop,” Persia Tatar, CMO of Pantalones Organic Tequila, says.

“National Tequila Day is one of our favorite holidays, so partnering with Tipsy Scoop to turn a summer margarita into ice cream felt like a no-brainer. It’s fun, unexpected, and proof that tequila belongs in more places than just your glass.”

But this isn’t the only collaboration between the two. Later this summer, Tipsy Scoop will release Pantalones Dallas Margarita Sorbet exclusively at the chain’s new Dallas Barlour. This dairy-free, vegan frozen treat was inspired by the Texas Margarita and features a citrus sorbet infused with Pantalones Organic Reposado Tequila, orange liqueur, and fresh lime juice. The result is a boozy, tart, fresh dessert that tastes like a classic Margarita in sorbet form.

“We love transforming iconic cocktails into unforgettable frozen desserts, and margaritas have always been a customer favorite,” Melissa Tavss, Tipsy Scoop founder and CEO, says.

“Partnering with Pantalones Organic Tequila allowed us to create a flavor that captures everything people love about a refreshing tequila cocktail in a fun, scoopable format.”

Where can I buy it?

The limited-edition Pantalones Peaches & Cream Margarita Ice Cream will be available starting on July 22 through August at all Tipsy Scoop Barlours. A scoop will set you back $8.50 and a pint will be $16. It can also be ordered as a four-pint package from Goldbelly for $109.95. When it releases later this summer, the Pantalones Dallas Margarita Sorbet will be a permanent menu offering at the Dallas Barlour, where you will be able to purchase a scoop for $8.50 or a pint for $16 in-store only.

I Take Back Everything I Said About Brunch
From Thai breakfast soup to Israeli spreads and Bloody Marys in the West Village, these are the New York City brunches that finally converted a former brunch hater..
Food, Food Presentation, Brunch

In my dissolute youth, I worked as a line cook in a hotel kitchen on Martha's Vineyard. Oh, how I loathed the brunch shift. Churning out a never-ending procession of yogurt parfaits and chocolate-chip pancakes, I wanted to dunk my head in the deep fryer by noon every Sunday. I even pitied the customers, who paid a premium for uninspired fare prepared by hungover, pissed-off cooks. Brunch? Fie upon it! The repast of brain-dead yoga moms.

But how age changes us. Now approaching forty, I'm something of a brunch maximalist. I once fancied myself an urban Viking, subsisting on pre-workout and nicotine by day and steak and whiskey by night. These days, I prefer nothing more than a lazy Sunday morning with my girlfriend in a sunlit dining room. Twin cappuccinos. Smoked salmon eggs Benedict. Tabasco-spiked Bloody Marys. A post-prandial stroll through the West Village. Why the hell did I shun such joys for so many years?

Verde Farms

If you've been to the butcher or the meat counter at the grocery store lately, you might have noticed it just seems to feel overwhelming. Today, there are endless meat choices and labels such as organic, grass-fed, prime, and choice, leaving shoppers confused and stressed. Are these just marketing terms, or are they labels that actually hold value (and should they affect how you shop?)

To help cut through the confusion, we chatted with William Eck III, the In-House Meat Expert at Verde Farms. A Le Cordon Bleu graduate and HACCP-trained food safety expert with more than 20 years of experience, including serving in a James Beard Award-winning kitchen, fine-dining chop houses and boutique butcheries, he brings whole-chain expertise to Verde Farms' commitment to organic, 100% grass-fed beef from pasture to plate.
