The Frozen Yogi Story

Our story begins on the sun-drenched island of Bali, where two American expats were captivated by the island’s vibrant culture and tantalizing tastes. It was here, amidst the lush landscapes and warm community spirit, that Frozen Yogi was born more than a decade ago. Inspired by the unique traditions and exotic designs of Bali, our founders set out to create a frozen dessert experience like no other.

After years of soaking in Bali's magic and being moved by the smiling, friendly, and accessible Balinese people, our founders knew they had to bring this spirit back home. They sought the perfect place to recreate this warmth and found it in the friendliest town in America—Warrenton, Virginia. Here, the community’s friendliness and warmth rivaled that of Bali, making it the ideal spot to introduce Frozen Yogi to America.

On a trip to Taipei, Taiwan some years ago, our founders Rob and Sue discovered the delightful world of boba drinks. The chewy tapioca pearls and refreshing flavors were a perfect complement to our frozen yogurt, so they added boba to the menu.

Then, a visit to Florence, Italy introduced them to the rich tradition of serving espressos. They were inspired by the Italian coffee culture and decided to combine these experiences with the wonderful aromas of Bali. And with so many Australians in Bali, they got obsessed with their amazing flat whites, so we brought that obsession back too, adding it to our offerings for a unique and delightful twist.

When Frozen Yogi set up it’s first tiny store besides the soccer (or football) field in Ubud, Bali, we were driven by more than just serving delicious frozen desserts. We wanted to create a retreat—a cozy, welcoming place where families and friends could gather, relax, and enjoy a moment of bliss. Our stores are designed to be a mini-vacation, offering an elegant yet accessible escape from the daily grind.

With a commitment to quality and community, we priced our products fairly, making sure that everyone could afford a little taste of paradise. As an independently owned brand, our mission is clear: to bring the spirit of paradise into every swirl and sip. Our team, made up of friendly and passionate individuals, is dedicated to ensuring that every customer feels valued and appreciated. We strive to make each visit an enchanting and memorable experience.

Today, Frozen Yogi is more than just a frozen yogurt shop—it’s a part of the communities in both Bali and America. In everything we do and serve, we remain committed to our core values: bringing joy, quality, and a little bit of paradise to our hometown.
