Booze Infused Ice Cream Shop Plans Summer Opening in BoDo

Get out of the way! We want to be the first ones in line when it opens!

I'll be honest, I've been thinking about "The STIL" (short for Sweetest Things in Life) since February when I found out they were moving into BoDo! Thanks to their Facebook page, we know when the new ice cream shop is planning to open in the former Snake River Winery store front!

In a video posted on the page, co-owner Kasey Allen walks you through the under construction space and reveals that they're targeting a June opening! He also broke down The STIL's six categories of ice cream for the Idaho Statesman: "The Usuas," "The Unsusual," "The Kitchen," "The Bar," "The Garden" and "The Lab."

It's pretty clear The STIL isn't your ordinary ice cream shop like Cold Stone Creamery, Ben & Jerry's or Dairy Queen.  The Bar category will be where the booze infused recipes come in.  One of the flavors they'll scoop up is called "Field of Dreams" and will blend butterscotch ice cream with amber ale and Cracker Jacks.  But booze infused ice cream isn't the only thing The STIL wants to be known for.  They're also thinking up new recipes for kids like Orange Crush/Fruity Pebbles, some more sophisticated flavors like Avocado Lime and Cucumber Mint...and the one I can't wait to try: Sweet Tea!

he plan is to add an outdoor patio area to fit 28 on a sunny, summer day in BoDo.
