SARATOGA SPRINGS — After a quick bugle call in the parking lot of the recently renovated Stewart’s Shops at 402 Lake Avenue, the ice cream maker partnered with the New York Racing Association (NYRA) to unveil the “Bel-Mint Stakes,” a tribute version of Mint Cookie Crumble.
The Belmont-themed flavor will be available at Stewart’s counters for a limited time, from April 28 until June 8 (the final day of the Belmont Stakes Racing Festival at Saratoga).
“Stewart’s and Saratoga Race Course have worked closely for many years,” said Stewart’s Chief Operation Officer Chad Kiesow in a press release. “It is exciting to expand our partnership to celebrate the Belmont Stakes, an event that brings so many racing fans and so much energy to the community.”
Stewart’s is also offering a special $99 three-day general admission pass for the Belmont Stakes Racing Festival at participating store locations.
