Gelateria Naia

Gelato on a stick is an excellent way to consume this delicious frozen dessert, especially when you’re a parent on the go. Even better if it’s infused with whisky. The St. George single malt whisky gelato pop at this North Beach gelateria has a smooth and mild butterscotch flavor that will win you over even if you don’t like whisky. And for the kiddos, they’ve got plenty of alcohol-free varieties including pluot, strawberry banana, chocolate and many more.
