Holiday drink menu
Gingerbread Latte / 5.50 / 6.00 / 6.50
Skip the attempts to build a festive gingerbread house that will never look as good as it does on Pinterest. Instead, lets us craft you one of these holiday favorites that tastes even better than it looks on Instagram. Made with espresso, ginger, holiday spices, brown sugar, and steamed milk. “Gingerbread latte? Oh, snap!”… get it?
The Lump of Coal / 6.00 / 6.50 / 7.00
Whether you’re on the naughty list or the nice, you need to give this drink a try. Activated charcoal makes a gray canvas, but don’t let that fool you, because this latte is packed with flavor. Cardamom-infused maple, espresso, steamed milk and cracked black pepper come together for the perfect specialty latte.
The Sleigh Ride / 5.50 / 6.00 / 6.50
When we originally created the Sleigh Ride, we knew only two things: we wanted to name a drink Sleigh Ride and we needed it to have egg nog—I mean honestly what says the holiday season more than egg nog? We finally came around to try egg nog with chai (after many trails of egg nog + miscellaneous ingredients). The combination of chai and egg nog makes an ultra creamy, festive treat unlike any other. This year, we took the same principle and added a little extra excitement to the mix.
Biscoff Latte / 6.00 / 6.50 / 7.00 — Highwood Cafe Exclusive
The Highwood team decided on a Biscoff Latte, made with Biscoff Cookie Butter, caramel, and spices. According to Bri, Assistant Manager at Highwood, “Sugar cookie was the immediate suggestion when we began thinking about holiday drinks. We thought a specific and iconic flavor like Biscoff would hold up against the espresso while giving that holiday cookie feel.”
Juniper Latte / 6.00 / 6.50 / 7.00 — Libertyville Cafe Exclusive
The Libertyville team landed on a Juniper Latte, made with juniper and pine bark, brown sugar, and orange. As Marissa, a barista at Libertyville who helped create this drink, said, “The idea came from capturing the taste of a Christmas Tree, trying to incorporate more earthy flavors to celebrate winter, and juxtaposed our sweeter holiday lineup”
The Mariah Carey / 6.00 / 6.50 / 7.00 — Winnetka Cafe Exclusive
The Winnetka team wanted to highlight the most classic aspects of a holiday palette that were missing from our current holiday menu, which led them to a slightly more savory approach. This pecan-rosemary latte incorporates classic flavors that remind you it’s time for the season to begin, much like the drink’s namesake, Mariah Carey.
“Enjoy her hot or iced, because she’s both naughty and nice.”
-Lucy, barista at Winnetka
