Frequently Asked Questions About Boozy Gelato
General Questions
-
A: Boozy gelato is premium Italian-style gelato infused with real alcohol. At High Bar Society, our gelato contains 5% ABV (alcohol by volume), which is similar to beer but in frozen dessert form. Unlike regular gelato with just a splash of liqueur for flavor, our gelato delivers a genuine alcoholic experience in every scoop.

-
A: It's a complex process that took months to perfect. Alcohol lowers the freezing point, so standard gelato techniques don't work. We use specialized equipment, precise temperature control (-18°C), and proprietary methods to integrate alcohol while maintaining creamy texture. Each flavor requires individual calibration.
