Event Espresso is in our 15th year of doing business and we have made a lot of changes to celebrate this milestone. Not only have we redesigned our website and brand image, we’ve revamped our menu selection. We’ve even expanded our add-on options to include premium loose leaf tea from Tin Roof Teas, as well as, high grade organic matcha and chai from ARTEAO. And as of this spring you can add specialty seasonal drinks, and the option to create a fully custom drink.
We hope that our add-ons allow our customers to design a menu based on the needs for their event. The option to choose add-ons is just one of the ways that we are able to uphold the ethos, people first, and coffee second.
The specialty drink add-on is the newest addition to the selection process when creating a contract with us. With this choice you are going to get an option of two seasonal drinks that come with premium toppings and whipped cream.
The Pistachio Dream Latte, a drink brought to you through popular demand for pistachio syrup, has a rich, nutty, savory flavor heightened by our Ghirardelli white chocolate powder topped with a pistachio flour dusting. If you haven’t tried a pistachio latte before this drink will surprise you by how balanced the flavors are between the syrup, chocolate powder, and espresso. Once the milk is steamed to perfection, you’ll have a drink that you dream of again and again.
Pistachio Dream Latte:
Two shots of espresso
1.5 pumps of Monin pistachio syrup
½ scoop of white chocolate powder
Mix those components together
Add steamed milk
Top with pistachio flour and optional whipped cream
The other drink option this season is our Honeyed Lavender Latte. A more classic spring drink than our pistachio dream latte, but delicious none the less. This drink can be served hot or make sure you try it iced. The honeyed lavender latte is topped with local North Carolina bee pollen from our wholesale partner, Tin Roof Teas. And if you are unfamiliar with bee pollen, it’s a nutrient dense topping choice, full of antioxidants, high vitamin levels, and overall helps boost your immune system.

Make sure you add these drinks to your next event because they are available for a limited time only. With Summer just around the corner, we will have two new drinks to choose from before you know it.
