It has a good balance of sweet and spicy, and has a delicious taste that you won’t get tired of drinking. ■About SAKEICE SAKEICE is ice cream mixed with Japanese sake and has an alcohol content of approximately 4%. Unlike ice cream with sake lees or ice cream that contains a trace amount of alcohol (less than 1%), we use plenty of Japanese sake as an ingredient to achieve a mature taste with a high alcohol content. By collaborating with sake breweries across Japan, we will share the potential of Japanese sake, which continues to evolve with American culture, from Tokyo to the world. ■Comment from SAKEICE representative Hiroyuki Narita The reason we started developing SAKEICE was after seeing a post on social media that said, “One Cup Ozeki tastes delicious when served on convenience store ice cream.” Therefore, in the early stages of development, we continued to search for a basic recipe using “One Cup Ozeki”, and we are very happy that we have been able to collaborate with sake, which is the very origin of SAKEICE. One Cup Ozeki is now a standard product, but when it was first released 60 years ago, it was a challenging product that stimulated demand for a new type of sake. SAKEICE is also a brand that was launched with the idea of spreading the appeal of Japanese sake through ice cream, and in fact, the majority of customers are women in their 20s and 30s. We hope that this collaboration will reach both past and future sake fans. ■Comment from Ozeki Co., Ltd. “One Cup Ozeki” is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year thanks to all of you for your patronage. In order to continue to be a beloved brand into the future, we were looking for an opportunity to make One Cup Ozeki more familiar to customers who have never tried it, and we met SAKEICE, which led to this collaboration. One Cup Ozeki created a new drinking style called cup sake at a time when it was normal to drink sake by transferring it from a sho bottle to a sake bottle. This time, we hope that as many people as possible can experience the same deliciousness that One Cup Ozeki has maintained for 60 years in a new form of ice cream. *“One Cup” is a registered trademark of Ozeki Co., Ltd. *Sakeice contains alcohol, so persons under 20 years of age, those who are pregnant or breastfeeding, those who plan to drive a car, motorcycle, bicycle, etc., and those who are sensitive to alcohol should not consume it.
