Cardi B Releases New Boozy Whipped Cream Called “Whipshots”
Cardi B is considered to be one of the great voices of a generation when it comes to her hype songs, more than 1 billion Spotify streams and hilarious one-liners. In 2018, Time Magazine even featured her in its annual list of the 100 Most Influential People. But she’s about to get even greater. You heard it here first, folks. The rapper is hopping on the celebrity alcohol brand bandwagon. You’ve seen Kendall Jenner’s 818 tequila. You’ve seen P. Diddy’s DeLeón tequila. But there’s nothing quite like this: it’s an inventive, fresh take on all things vodka, and they’re called Whipshots.
Cardi is partnering with California brand consultancy Starco Brand to bring this vision to life. The company has described Whipshots as a “playful shot of sophistication, indulgence and luxury to any drink or party.” It can be added to top off a sweet cocktail, or you can enjoy it on its own. It comes in several different flavors, including vanilla, strawberry, caramel, mocha and chocolate. And the best part? They’re completely dairy-free. Can we get a hand for our lactose-intolerant babes?!
Cardi B said in a statement, “I’m so excited to join Starco Brands with this incredible opportunity. Whipshots matches my style—over the top, sexy, unique. Together we’re completely innovating whipped cream and giving it an extra pop. Whipshots is Cardi in a can.”
What sets this product apart from other non-hard vodka products on the market is its 10% vodka content. It is said to be the result of four years’ worth of research and development and does not require refrigeration. Instead, it is designed to be stored on shelves alongside other spirits. Starco Brands is also the only business in the U.S. with a license to manufacture aerosols in distilleries.
Though the line doesn’t have an official release date, it’s expected to hit the shelves come December, so definitely be on the lookout. If you happen to receive a pack for the holidays, submit your photos to @theedgemag on Instagram. You most definitely do not want to miss this.
