![]() A new vodka-flavored ice cream launched in Australia provoked an outcry on April 3, 2004 from groups worried it would give children a taste for alcohol. The booze-flavored Illicit Vodka Cranberry Magnum ice creams hit the shelves just months after biscuit-maker Arnott's new Tia Maria Tim Tams and Kahlua Slices prompted fears that the liquor-laced biscuits would encourage children to drink.
