Sip The Season on 30A!
The holiday season along 30A is a magical time filled with festive lights, cool breezes, and the cozy warmth of holiday drinks from our favorite local coffee spots! Whether you’re a latte lover or hot cocoa connoisseur, these standout beverages from Black Bear Coffee, Amavida, Blue Mountain Bakery, and The Coffee Shoppe will make your Christmas season extra merry and bright!
Black Bear Coffee
Located in Grayton Beach, Black Bear Coffee is a go-to for craft coffee enthusiasts, and their seasonal offerings don’t disappoint.
- Gingerbread Latte: This drink is a holiday classic with a Black Bear twist. Featuring their rich espresso, steamed milk, and a house-made gingerbread syrup, it’s topped with a dash of cinnamon for the perfect holiday kick.
- Peppermint Hot Cocoa: Perfect for non-coffee drinkers or anyone seeking sweet comfort, their peppermint hot cocoa is decadent and topped with whipped cream and crushed peppermint candies.
Pro Tip: Pair your drink with one of their famous baked goods, like my personal favorite, their almond croissant or chocolate raspberry scone!
Amavida Coffee Roasters
Amavida’s eco-friendly ethos and expertly crafted coffee make it a 30A staple. Their holiday menu highlights bold and creative flavors.
- Holiday Cookie Latte: A delightful mix of espresso, steamed milk, and sugar cookie syrup. It’s a small but powerful dose of holiday cheer.
- Eggnog Latte: Amavida’s take on this traditional favorite is silky, rich, and perfectly spiced, made with locally-sourced eggnog.
Don’t miss their retail coffee beans and tea blends for gifting (or treating yourself) this season!
