March Events

March always feels like the deep breath before the exhale. The light lingers a little longer, the air softens (just slightly), and we start emerging from full-on winter mode. After months of bundling up and keeping cozy, it finally feels like we’re stepping out of hibernation — and we’re celebrating the best way we know how: with coffee, community, and a lineup of events at Tala.

Lavender Lemon 75

Valentine’s day is perfectly romantic, and while some may say it’s a hallmark holiday, we could never oppose a good excuse to mix up some cocktails and spend time with the one who makes us smile the most. This year we wanted to have some fun and make a drink that characterizes all the romance and charm of Valentine’s day as we know it. This cocktail is bubbly, floral-y, and definitely fun! So get out your shaker and jigger and favorite coupe glasses and follow along!

Gesha Cold Brew

We recently launched our first coffee in our Tala Truest line: the Israel Hernandez Gesha from Tolima, Colombia. As much as we’ve been loving it hot, the thought occurred to us to conduct a wild experiment. It came in a stroke of genius—the kind of genius that seems hyperbolic at first—and we quickly realized it might actually work. We made cold brew with the Gesha, a bold move none of us have seen from the specialty industry before. The result? Amazing. So we’re going to share! This limited-edition cold brew will be sold in bottles in our cafe and be available for Neighborly delivery to local customers.
