What does “Love Local” mean to you?

For us, “Love Local” means the unwavering support from locals and tourists over the past eight years.

Thirty-year residents of the desert, Nancy and Sebastian Prieto opened Nitroinfusions in 2013, using Sebastian's grandfather's recipes from Mexico City. They found the perfect spot in Old Town La Quinta to serve both locals and visitors.

Far from a typical scoop-and-serve shop, Nitroinfusions flash-freezes more than 30 flavors and creative combinations—like salted caramel, strawberry cheesecake, roasted pistachio olive oil, mocha cappuccino, and banana lavender—using liquid nitrogen. They source only fresh, local, organic ingredients with no preservatives or additives. “We’re the only ice cream shop in the Coachella Valley using liquid nitrogen,” says Nancy.

Inspired by a YouTube video of a teacher using liquid nitrogen, the Prietos discovered it produces fresher, smoother, creamier ice cream. Their loyal customers agree.

“We’re grateful seeing how much customers love our ice cream,” Nancy shares. “We cherish when locals return with family and friends, and snowbirds come back yearly.”

That’s something to scream about!
