Clinton Takes Credit for Making Wine Ice Cream a Thing
Apr 18, 2016
(Vanityfair) - With just one day to go before the New York primaries, all five candidates are desperately canvassing the state, trying to scrape every last vote from each nook and cranny of the state’s diverse populations. They’ve been to dinners at Sylvia’s, in Harlem, and visited a matzo factory in Brooklyn, and traipsed upstate from Rochester to Schenectady. Now, in this bare-knuckles brawl to win over every possible special-interest group, Hillary Clinton has apparently found a fresh new demographic to pander to: food-obsessed millennials.
On Monday, Clinton published a list of her favorite New York foods in a guest post for Thrillist, which, naturally, has something for everyone. Old-school Italian-red-sauce aficionados? The Savoy in Rome. Elitist restaurant snobs who love bragging about impossible-to-obtain reservations? Rao’s, East Harlem. People just looking for a quick bite without the pretension? Hillstone. Instagrammers who love celebrity-chef restaurants in up-and-coming neighborhoods, but don't want to think about the racial dynamics of gentrification? Marcus Samuelsson’s Red Rooster, in Harlem.
Of course, no entreaty to the urbane millennials who have spurned Clinton’s campaign would be complete without a nod toward the 2012-era trend of food-booze mashups. Even better the former New York senator can possibly take some credit for its creation:
Three words: wine ice cream. As a senator, I started something called New York Farm Day. We’d bring producers from all over the state to Washington to show off the best New York has to offer. One year, we had a winemaker set up next to a family-owned ice cream maker. Long story short, someone was having a really good time, and after a few glasses of wine, they poured some cabernet over a bowl of ice cream. Soon everyone was trying it. Today, Mercer’s exports its wine ice cream to 15 countries. Chocolate cabernet, strawberry sparkling, raspberry chardonnay, cherry merlot -- you really can’t go wrong.
