| abstract |
The present invention relates to a beverage composition which remains substantially liquid at freezer temperatures as low as at least 0° F. (about -18° C.). These beverages, which can optionally contain alcohol, contain, as an ice crystal formation inhibitor, either glycerol or propylene glycol, generally from about 6 to about 20 percent of said composition on a volume basis, and usually from about 10 to about 15 percent of said composition. These beverages, when placed in a freezer, remain soft and can be readily poured, squeezed or spooned into an appropriate serving container for consumption. |
