Drifter Coffee NZ is a sisterhood truck with the original business - Drifter Coffee, that is based in Detroit. For the past year or so I worked on the Treat Dreams ice cream truck in Detroit, slinging homemade ice cream and making friends with the wider food truck community. I became friends with Alleah Webb, who owns Drifter Coffee and started thinking of ideas to start my own business. She inspi

red me to start thinking about coffee and following the weeks of my arrival back to New Zealand, I was speaking with Alleah to figure out what i needed to get going. I arrived back in New Zealand with a clear vision and a passion to create something unique for the Hibiscus Coast. Operating out of a 1950s Starliner Caravan, Drifter Coffee NZ is offering up some premium coffee drinks made with Raglan Roast beans. Iced tea is also on the menu as well as homemade Kombucha, which is flavored with seasonal fruit juices. On top of all this, we want to create a chill environment where people can have a great yarn, enjoy the world around them and drink good coffee.

Tomorrow is Shelby’s last day working at Drifter 🩷 She’s off to join the The Extravaganza Fair with her partner Coen and their canine companion Bucky 🫶🏼 Living on the road in a freaking rad house truck! It’s been great to have her back in the fold of Drifter, Shelby has come and been before, always off into the next epic adventure- she’s run her own coffee trailer at one time and that’s her job ahead on the fair- running the coffee caravan that’s the heart of soul of the fair ⚡️ We’re so dang proud of her and hope to visit her while she tours this beautiful country 🌿 Anyway, to sweeten the deal tomorrow we are going to be getting in our usual TwoSpoons order- Brioche and Brownies (might be our last week as Keeley is killing it on baking at the moment) Keeley is also making more cheddar jalapeño scones tomorrow, so if you didn’t get one last Friday….now is your chance! See ya tomorrow for kawhe 🌞

New sign, who this? In a world being dominated by AI posters, logos and generic stuff, it’s good to come back to old school cool, with a paintbrush and pencil sketches 😜 I was sick while I was painting this, but it came out pretty cool I reckon 🤙🏼 The three waves are an ode to my sisters, the coffee cup is for everyone ( cause there will always be a cup for everyone at drifter), added in some little p**i shell patterns as an ode to Ōrewa beach, the sun of course cause what’s better than that? 🌞 And some leaves for growth and cultivation of this community 🫶🏼 Added in some koru patterns for connection and glitter…cause why the heck not ✨This was a tricky one to come up with though, cause our old sign was freaking vibey and I painted that many years ago while we were getting our annual machine service and I wasn’t thinking too much about it 😅 Anyway, happy Saturday night everyone 🫶🏼
