Introducing Our Alcoholic Ice Cream Collaboration with The Boozy Scoop
At Hyatt Place Melbourne Caribbean Park, we are always searching for fresh ways to delight our guests — and what better way to elevate your stay than with a scoop of alcoholic ice cream delivered straight to your room? We are thrilled to introduce our newest in-room dining treat in partnership with The Boozy Scoop, a Melbourne-born brand that is redefining dessert.
A Melbourne-Made Original
We are proud to work with The Boozy Scoop — Australia’s first alcoholic gelato and sorbet brand, turning timeless drinks into frozen treats with a 3–5% ABV twist. They’re Melbourne-made and driven by one delicious idea: what if your favourite cocktail could become your favourite dessert?
Launched in 2023, the idea began as a fun experiment in co-founder Dan’s home kitchen — armed with two second-hand ice cream machines and a passion for gelato and cocktails.
“I was experimenting with different flavour combinations, trying to find that perfect balance between the sweetness and creaminess everyone loves from gelato — while still letting the alcohol shine through”
But crafting alcoholic ice cream isn’t as simple as adding a splash of liquor. After countless trials and collaboration with local ice cream partners, Dan and the team found the sweet spot — quite literally.
“Alcohol lowers the freezing point of the product, meaning it can melt faster. So finding the right balance of spirits without compromising texture was a huge challenge”
From smooth and creamy classics like Dark Chocolate Whisky Gelato to bright, refreshing sorbets (we’re eyeing you, Mango Margarita), every flavour is carefully balanced to deliver sweetness with just the right hint of spirit.
Exclusive In-Room Indulgence
To celebrate this partnership, we are offering two of The Boozy Scoop’s most irresistible flavours exclusively through our in-room dining menu:
· Pina Colada Ice Cream – Coconut, pineapple, and a dash of rum — the ultimate tropical escape
· Dark Chocolate Whisky Gelato – A bold, velvety creation combining rich cocoa with the smoky depth of whisky — ideal for late-night indulgence
Whether you’re ending the day on a sweet note or treating yourself “just because,” these small-batch gelatos are a playful twist on dessert that you won’t want to miss.
Why We Love This Partnership
Partnering with local innovators like The Boozy Scoop aligns with our mission to support local businesses while delivering unexpected and memorable moments for our guests. It’s more than just dessert — it’s a conversation starter, a nightcap, and a celebration of everything we love about this city’s evolving culinary scene.
“We’ve only been in business properly for about a year, but it’s been so exciting to see The Boozy Scoop served in exceptional bars, restaurants, hotels, cinemas, and entertainment venues. Looking ahead, we’d love to collaborate with even more venues and cater for larger-scale events. And of course, we’re always dreaming up new cocktail-inspired flavours — so stay tuned!”
So go on — stay with us and order that boozy scoop to your room. Because at Hyatt Place Melbourne Caribbean Park, we believe the best travel memories come with a little indulgence.
