A beverage consisting of a base liquid, often fruit-flavored or containing ingredients that impart a pink hue, is modified through the addition of a dairy product characterized by its high fat content. An example is a strawberry-flavored refresher blended with a substantial amount of heavy cream, resulting in a richer, creamier texture and altered flavor profile.
The appeal of this beverage modification lies in its enhanced sensory experience. The increased fat content contributes to a more luxurious mouthfeel, while also potentially mitigating the acidity or tartness of the underlying base liquid. Historically, alterations to standard beverages through additions of cream or other dairy products have been common practice to customize flavor and texture profiles according to individual preferences. This practice reflects a broader trend toward personalized consumption and modification of commercially available products.
