LIME GELATO

Let’s say a philosopher, a Frenchman, and an American all end up in the same café. Just what do they eat? The gelato of 17th-century Paris is the obvious choice. Gelato was created by Sicilian chef Francesco Procopio dei Coltelli, who worked in the oldest, continuously operating café in Paris, Café Procope. His clientele ranged from commoners to the social elite. Coltelli’s grandpa invented the ice machine in Italy, and Coltelli perfected it in France. This allowed to produce the delicious frozen delight. Fascinant. Gelato is now more strongly linked with Italy than France. Italy is the only country in the world where handcrafted gelato outnumbers factory-made by a large factor. Gelato has less fat than ice cream, but its intense fruity flavour comes from a combination of high sugar content and natural fruit purees.

Lime Gelato fruit tea was created to honour the long tradition of gelato. You’re going to adore this as much as Voltaire did because of the delicious combination of dried fruits in it “Wonderful gelato. Too bad that isn’t against the law “. Yum.
