Just in case some of y'all are still following the old page, I thought I'd drop this here... come on out for our annual Harry Potter celebration this Saturday. It's gonna be epic! ⚡

Hey friends! 2 days left until our Harry Potter celebration! Everything is ready to rock, so I hope you enjoy the fruits of my labor of love!

Returning are the butter beer lattes (hot or iced)
Butter beer frappes, our famous Goblet of Fire smoking Italian soda in the Hogwarts collector cup, and the butter beer and sorting hat cupcakes.

We will also have the Honey dukes sweet shop counter with Bertie Botts beans, jelly slugs, and chocolate frogs. And no worries: after last year's store bought melted blob chocolate frog fiasco, these frogs were made by hand in house by yours truly using Ghirardelli chocolate. 🤤

New to the lineup this year:
Child sized iced butter beers (no coffee)
Butter beer buckets, yess!! (With or without espresso)
Iced butter beer lattes in to-go bottles
Polyjuice potion (lemon-lime soda w/ lime sherbet) in a glass collector potion bottle
Limited edition bags of my Hogwarts Blend fresh roasted espresso beans infused with caramel & butterscotch

We will also have complimentary samples of Gillywater in our water carafe (sparkling water with spirals of lime and cucumber, and fresh sprigs of mint)

Mr. Ben is coming in tomorrow to turn the shop into Hogwarts, so get ready, tell your friends, share this post, and come out and have some fun with us Saturday! Can't wait! ⚡

Hey friends! I'm heading out for a few days on a road trip to celebrate the holidays early with family in Texas. Maddie and Becca will be taking care of the shop until I get back next week, and I made sure to stock up on all your favorites! Stop in to grab your last sips of our fall flavors before they're gone for the season. The holiday menu drops next Friday, so stay tuned... 😉 🎄

Have a great week/weekend, and I'll see y'all at the shop on Monday! ☕.
