Jessie on a Journey
A hand holds a paper cup filled with a generous swirl of creamy white gelato topped with juicy, vibrant blackberries. The gelato appears to be homemade and artisanal, with a rich, velvety texture. The image is set inside a charming gelato shop or cafe, with a teal green accent wall, warm lighting from pendant lamps, and a wooden counter or display case in the foreground. In the background, a person, likely an employee, stands behind the counter, suggesting an inviting and welcoming atmosphere.

South Alamode: Authentic Gelato in San Antonio

I explored San Antonio's sweet side at South Alamode Panini & Gelato Company. Instead of processed candy-coated creations they focus on refreshing gelatos made daily with natural and regionally renowned ingredients imported from Italy (like pistachio from Bronte!). I ordered the Blackberry Ricotta featuring real juicy fruits and a Lemon Ricotta with Limoncello-inspired lady finger chunks. Yes, $6 for a small ice cream is expensive, but it’s two ENORMOUS scoops and is so delicious it’s worth it. You’re also welcome to as many free samples as you wish. Plus the naturally lit space is full of art works, wooden tables, game and book-lined shelves and dangling pendant lighting for a nice atmosphere. What's your favorite place to get tasty treats in San Antonio?
