We’ve got something cool to put in your cup

When things get hot it's time to get cool

Since it is officially spring, we’ve felt a nudge coming from our customers to develop our cold drink menu. Something we do every season, but it seems like it’s coming earlier than it did in years past. We’ve gotten input from friends and co-workers as well as the well traveled visitors who have stopped in on their way some place. There is no end to the possibilities of lip smacking things to drink. The traditional iced coffee/mocha/ lattes already have long lines attached to them, as do our iced-teas and Arnold Palmers. We’ve been experimenting with some great smoothie recipes added fresh, organic carrot and apple juice. It’s a menu that complements our coffee menu wonderfully. What a way to chill in the PM. If you find yourself in the Arkansas Valley stop by Sacred Ground Coffee Shop (Mountain Phoenix Coffee Roasters is right next door) and say hello. We’ve put  tables and chairs out in the garden and there are a few buds clinging to the limbs of the elm tree.
