The Nassau location will include a special flavor called Bahana Mama, named after the country’s famous cocktail, with coconut rum, fresh orange, pineapple juice and grenadine.

The company’s Bahamian launch included participating in this week’s Nassau Paradise Island Wine and Food Festival at Atlantis Paradise Island.

It’s not the only high-end ice cream shop of its kind in Nassau, though: the capital is home to two locations of Graycliff’s popular Chocotini, which has both kid and adult-friendly versions of its potable desserts.
