Now Serving: A Full Bar
Posted on July 18, 2014 by Frozen Pints
You may have heard the news – we recently launched a new brand of alcoholic ice cream and sorbet, The Ice Cream Bar. We couldn’t be more excited. An entry into a new market, it’s the next step in growing our business to be the premier provider of alcoholic ice cream. When you go to a bar, you can order any type of alcohol, and it shouldn’t be
any different just because our goods are frozen.
As excited as we are, we’ve gotten a lot of questions from current fans of Frozen Pints about its status – just to clarify, it’s not going anywhere. It’s
kind of like having a new kid – you still love the old one, and you love them both differently (as much as older siblings might protest). Rest assured, as a middle child myself, I will make 100% sure that everyone is taken care of.
As to The Ice Cream Bar, flavors include Bourbon Butter Pecan and Mojito Sorbet. It runs between 8%
and 9% alcohol, which works out to about three shots in a pint, so take it easy as you reach for a double (scoop). It’s the real deal.
And me? I’m excited
to have a full bar to play with. In college I set up a bar in my dormroom complete with a false-backed bookcase – books on one side, liquor on the other. The Ice Cream Bar brings back great memories. Let me
know if you have some ideas for a new cold-coction here , and enjoy the rest of ice cream season while you can.

How are you liking this intern gig? The creativity and innovation of Frozen Pints is what originally drew me in, and I immediately fell in love with the craft beer industry. Working at a smaller and younger company allows me to hold more responsibilities than most interns, and it gives me the ability to share my ideas and actually be heard. Every week is something new, and you never get bored of what you do; because seriously…who could get bored of craft beer ice cream?

1/2 teaspoon salt
