Introducing a Sweet Treat From Stewart's for Horse Racing Fans
Horse racing enthusiasts can now enjoy a new way to celebrate the Belmont Stakes, thanks to a creative partnership between the New York Racing Association (NYRA) and Stewart’s Shops: The Bel-Mint Stakes.
This limited-time ice cream flavor is a tribute version of Mint Cook Crumble rebranded by Stewart's just in time for the Belmont Stakes Racing Festival.
The ice cream will be available from April 28 through June 8 in honor of the Belmont Stakes, taking place in Saratoga for the second year in a row, June 4 to 8.
The name was chosen via an online poll conducted by NYRA in March, and the ice cream is available at over 175 participating Stewart's locations.
But the collaboration doesn't stop with dessert: Fans can pick up a 3-day general admission pass for the Belmont Stakes at $99, offered exclusively at Stewart's while supplies last - this is a 15% savings. There's even an add-on savings to include admission for all four days of the July 4th Racing Festival at just $20.
