What’s All the Buzz??3 min read

Take two wonderful things–– alcohol and ice cream––put them together, and what do you have? Buzzed Bull Creamery! Located in OTR at 1408 Main St.

The owners were so kind to let me come in just hours before the grand opening to do my first Facebook live interview and eat some delicious ice cream! So, thank you!!

First impressions mean a lot, and the seven masterminds behind Buzzed won me over! So did the ice cream. The hype and excitement is deserved!

How did this even come about? Kaitlyn & Colten Mounce were hanging out one night at their home in Florida eating ice cream and drinking cocktails, and they started thinking, “how can we combine these two fantastic things??” Why none of us have thought of this before is beyond me. :) They thought they were on to something, so they sold their house and cars and moved back home to Cincinnati. After about a year of testing and sampling in Mom’s kitchen with Colten’s brother , sister-in-law and another couple, they decided they’d mastered the mix and it was time to sell it!

So here’s the deal…it’s like Chipotle for boozy ice cream! You pick your ice cream or frozen yogurt, your mix-ins (chocolate chips, graham crackers etc.), then the alcohol (or not…you can go non-buzzed). The end is the best part. At this point, it’s all liquid, then it’s put in a KitchenAid mixer and blasted with liquid nitrogen to flash freeze the ingredients, making it extra creamy! So everyone gets to see their own concoction made before their very eyes! Kids will love this… non-buzzed of course ;)

If you have trouble deciding on what you want, they have specialty options that will change periodically. Some of the flavors include the Margarita , Rum & Coke and I had the Red Leg which is Strawberry, Vodka, Red Bull and graham cracker! Next on my list is The Bonfire (yes, it includes Fireball!). They also offer a “flight” which is four pre-made samples.
