Featured: Jolly's Old-Fashioned Teas Cream
Jason Jolly, owner of Jolly’s Old-Fashioned Teas Cream, began crafting sweet treats long before he considered turning them into a business. “I’ve been making ice cream since I was a kid,” he said. “I had this idea for making tea-flavored ice cream for years. Then one day my wife heard a story on NPR Radio about Ice Cream University and encouraged me to go.”
Jason knew he could turn his passion for ice cream and tea into something unique. “Truthfully, I was a little worried if I’d be able to offer a variety of flavors,” he said. “It didn’t take too long to realize I had a nice selection to choose from.”
Jason now serves his sweet treats as part of Presidio Pop Up. We asked him which views at Presidio Tunnel Tops he enjoys the most. “I think the view of the bridge is one of the most beautiful at the park,” he shared. And it’s best enjoyed with a scoop of Jolly’s most popular flavors: chocolate smoke and rose pistachio. Yes, please!
