Getting drunk on ice cream ud to be the stuff of dreams,but thanks to Will Rogers,inventor and owner of WDS Desrt Stations in Hinkley,Illinois,it has become a delicious reality.The Below Zero ice cream machine us a unique technique to freeze alcohol,which allows you to turn beers,cocktails and even spirits（烈酒） into delicious soft-rve ice cream.
Rogers was trying to create a highly-caffeinated espresso ice cream flavor when he realized he could u the same technique with alcoholic beverages.He started experimenting with various gums and stabilizers commonly ud in the ice cream industry and eventually patented something called the NEA gel.It's this magical concoction（调制品）that allows the alcohol to freeze to a near solid inside the Below Zero ice cream machine.
Even though Below Zero changes the texture（质地）of beer,cocktails and even spirits,esntially turning them into soft-rve ice cream,it does not affect the alcohol content at all.The ABV（酒精度） remains exactly the same,which means you can get drunk on ice-cream just as you would on the same concoctions in liquid form.
Will Rogers claims that it takes around 30 minutes for beer to go from liquid to ice cream form,but higher alcohol content drinks take longer.Esntially,the higher the alcohol level,the longer the wait.
The American inventor plans to ll Below Zero ice cream machines to bars and breweries wanting to surpri their patrons.Metro reports that machines will ll for about 6，000.

蝴蝶英语Jeff Bezos,Elon Musk and Richard Branson have a combined net worth of 400 billion,roughly the size of the GDP of the entire nation of Ireland.And all three men have decided to put vast sums of their wealth into chasing their space travel dreams,creating a modern space race in which ultra-rich men — rather than countries — shoot for the stars.
But why the three billionaires choo the crazy plan？Just for the travel dreams？It's not that simple.
As we all know,the space travel is a mirror of comprehensive national strength,whether it's the cold war or the prent.The first space race spanned multiple presidents and premiers—Kennedy,Krushchev,Brezhnev,Nixon.It made heroes of astronauts and cosmo
nauts,and it focud national prides.But obviously,this year's race between the billionaires features none of that national pride or opposing ideas.It's tax-aver tycoons（大亨）who want to ll high-priced tickets to rich people interested in experiencing weightlessness.Amazon's Bezos has said he is funding his portion by lling off large chunks of his Amazon stock（股票）— 1 billion or more a year.
What are the odds？If anyone is taking bets on how this will end,and who will have the more profitable space tourism business,consider Amazon's method of making very little profit in order to eat up competition.So,from this point of view,what's hiding behind this crazy race is business.As a method of expand influence,it is not a bad idea.
Richard Branson has carried out his plan on July 12，and Jeff Bezos announced that he will start his space travel on July 20.Bezos is getting some good press becau he's taking Wally Funk along for the ride.She's the pilot now in her 80s who was kept out of space in the 1960s becau she's a woman.This may be a bonus for him.As for Musk,he thinks the two above are not real space trips,he wants a larger move.
Who will win the race in the end？Let's wait and e.
