Chill-N Nitrogen Ice Cream (Chill-N) at 3415 Main Highway, Coconut Grove

Opening soon to the delight of sweet lovers in South Miami-Dade is the eighth location of South Florida’s first and largest liquid nitrogen ice cream brand. The store will feature a softer color palette, more lighting and a modern edge designed to highlight the ingredients while showcasing the entire nitrogen ice cream process. Customers are an active part of the process: they choose a portion size, ice cream base and flavor before adding a variety of toppings (candy, cookies, cereal, fruit, sauces, nuts and even Cuban coffee). Each scoop of ice cream is hand-crafted to order and flash frozen on the spot using liquid nitrogen at a startling -320° Fahrenheit.

 

Shady Distillery at 616 NW Second Ave., Fort Lauderdale

Some of the first batches from head distiller Jonny VerPlanck include “Shady” Vodka, seven times distilled from corn and gluten free and carb free with no sweeteners or additives, and “‘RECOUNT 2020” Vodka. Up next, “Shady” Experience Tasting Tours and small-batch custom labeling for the holidays.
