NICE CREAM brings the summer style of Southern French flavor to Beijing. They have brought the theme of ‘gelato & wine’ to city for the first time, with more than ten ice cream flavors that you can pair with a glass of sauvignon blanc of bright acidity.
They also have a sparking chardonnay and a nonalcoholic traubensaft – all are available for RMB45 per a glass. If you’ve never tried wine and ice cream together, it is a surprising taste experience you won’t soon forget!

One of our favorites is the Spicy Peanut flavor – it perfectly captures the taste of one of Beijing’s most popular snacks. There are even special local flavors such as Beijing Tang Hu Lu – you get all the sweetness of those malt sugar coated fruits without that pokey stick!
The Black Sesame & Mochi has a powerful flavor that is balanced by the soft mochi pieces mixed throughout.

All the flavors are available in a cup or cone for RMB39 for two scoops and RMB52 for three scoops. Although you can buy NICE CREAM in grocery stores throughout China, only Beijing has their own shops – they both have sleek and trendy designs.
