cool – pun intended. According
to Bradford Amirault, director of
operations, each shake begins with a
loving helping of Breyers ice cream,
before the bartender
adds other fixings such as
vodka, amaretto or fresh
fruits. Shakes are popular
year round, he said, with
a predictable increase in
sales during summer. And
check often – new shakes
appear on the menu from
time to time.
“We have a standard
menu but we change it up,” Amirault
said. “Recently we tried a shake made
with WilliamWolf pecan whiskey, and
that was a lot of fun.”
MY FATHER’S MOUSTACHE
Just a merry jaunt from Sullivan’s
Island, My Father’s Moustache Eatery
& Pub has been carrying booze-infused
ice cream since last fall, and owner Rob
Walker is interested in seeing how it
fares during the balmier months. The
flavors, all offered by J.B.’s Proof in
Columbia, South Carolina, include
chocolate bourbon, vanilla moonshine,
coconut rum and mint julep.
According to Walker, the mint julep
and coconut rum varieties are popular,
as are the custom cocktails made with
the ice cream.
“We do drink concoctions as well as
selling the ice cream in single serving
cups,” he noted. “Drinks have included
chocolate martinis, floats made with
a Coke and vanilla moonshine ...
whatever complements the flavor.”
LAURA ALBERTS
For those who are truly looking to
indulge in a first-class dessert, head
to Laura Alberts on Daniel Island,
where owner and operator Karen Elsey
supports the local circuit with offerings
made by Cirsea ice cream. According
to Elsey, the bourbon caramel ice
cream served with a house-made butter
pecan cookie has remained a cherished
option – and it’s worth checking back
this summer for others.
“We may replace these offerings to
reflect seasonal flavors in the future,”
said Elsey. “They have been well-
received, and we are always happy to
support local food purveyors.”
