To celebrate National Iced Tea Day, which is Friday, June 10, McAlister’s Deli has teamed up with Creamalicious to offer the deli’s famous sweet tea as an ice cream.

The limited edition pint transforms the beverage into a rich, velvety ice cream featuring notes of sugar cookie and lemon swirls. 

“We are thrilled to put such a fun twist on our most iconic menu item and allow fans the opportunity to experience their favorite Sweet Tea in a new way,” said MacAlister’s Deli Executive Chef Courtney Bufford. “With Creamalicious being known for transforming blissful Southern recipes into ice cream, we knew they were the perfect partner to collaborate on a unique confection out of our Famous Sweet Tea.”

Staring June 10, consumers can purchase a pint for $7.99 at participating McAlister’s Deli’s. The Wyoming McAlister’s Deli, located at  a 2380 Health Dr. SW, which is near the University of Michigan Health – West hospital, has indicated it plans to be offering the sweet treat.

The limited-edition flavor also will be available through the Creamalicious website while supplies last.
