Alcohol-infused whipped cream is a type of whipped cream that is mixed with an alcoholic drink.
By 2005[1] it had been commercialized. It has been sold under brand names such as Liquor Whipped, which is 28 proof; CREAM, which is 30 proof; Whipped Lightning which is 35.5 proof and is made in various flavors;[1][2] Get Whipped,[3] Whipsy, which is 27 proof[4] and made with wine;[5] and Canisters of Cream.[6] The commercial preparations are offered in aerosol cans.
The toppings have been criticized for their potential to be "aimed at young drinkers".[7] "If a product looks like something else, it's easy not to be aware that it might contain a lot of alcohol," a public health official observed.[8] In the United States the sale of alcohol-infused whipped cream is regulated as a "distilled spirits specialty product".[9]
