101 Days of Summer Artisanal Gelato and Sorbet at Opus Lounge, Four Seasons Hotel Beijing

As the seasons change, fruits reach peak ripeness, bringing fresh flavour and character to summer menus. Four Seasons Hotel Beijing presents a seasonal gelato and sorbet collection at Opus Lounge from June through August, highlighting the qualities of seasonal ingredients at their peak.

Each creation is thoughtfully composed to preserve the authenticity of the fruit, highlighting natural sweetness, acidity and aroma in a light, refreshing experience suited to the summer season in the capital.

June | Tropical Prelude

A luminous opening to the season, where tropical brightness meets refined indulgence.

• Inspiration Passion Fruit Chocolate Gelato and Mango Sorbet: A vibrant pairing where tropical passion fruit meets the depth of chocolate. The creamy richness of cacao is lifted by sun-drenched mango sorbet, creating a bright, expressive contrast that captures the energy of early summer.
• Inspiration Matcha Chocolate Gelato and Hawthorn Sorbet: Earthy matcha and refined chocolate form a grounding base, balanced by the gentle tartness of hawthorn sorbet. Carefully refined to remove bitterness, hawthorn introduces a delicate brightness that brings clarity and lift to the palate.

July | Peak Summer Abundance

At the heart of summer, Flavours deepen, soften, and harmonize.

• 70% Guanaja Chocolate Gelato and Raspberry Sorbet: Intense dark chocolate is softened by the lively acidity of raspberry sorbet. The interplay between richness and freshness creates a composition that is both indulgent and refreshingly balanced.
• Peach, Red Bean Gelato and Opalys White Chocolate Gelato: Silky white chocolate gelato balances the delicate sweetness of peach and red bean, evoking the gentle warmth of a summer afternoon breeze—smooth, comforting, and quietly elegant.

August | Late Summer Serenity

As summer gently softens into its final chapter, flavours become calmer, more contemplative.

• 53% Hukambi Milk Chocolate Gelato and Grape Oolong Tea Sorbet: Creamy milk chocolate is paired with grape‑infused oolong sorbet. The notes of oolong tea and ripe grape evoke the sensation of a cool evening breeze in late summer.
• Taro Ice Cream and Mandarin Jasmine Tea Sorbet: Velvety taro offers depth, while mandarin jasmine sorbet introduces citrus and floral notes. Together, they create a balanced combination of richness and lightness.

From the intensity of midsummer to the transition into late season, each pairing reflects the character of fruit at its peak.

At Opus Lounge, gelato and sorbet are also served in a handcrafted waffle cup, where warm crispness contrasts with icy textures. A selection of toppings allows for personalisation of each creation.
