Hemp Milk Coconut Mocha
In the mood for something new this season? Try adding hemp milk to your morning cup of joe with the People’s Organic Hemp Milk Coconut Mocha. General manager Juell Roberts describes hemp milk as similar to almond milk, but thicker than other nutty milks on the market, which adds to its rich flavor. Made with 100% fair-trade espresso, this drink combines the decadence of a traditional mocha with a hint of coconut, calling to mind tropical islands and warm sandy beaches. Sigh. 3545 Galleria; 952.426.1856
Adult Sugar Cookie Latte
If the bright atmosphere and cozy fireplace don’t cheer you up, Seven Stars Coffee House’s Adult Sugar Cookie Latte certainly will. Owner Kathy Rendleman brews a blend of almond, vanilla, steamed milk and espresso, resulting in the best latte this side of the Mississippi. Take time to savor your beverage, and if you are really treating yourself, grab one of their cheesecake brownies. 7015 Amundson Ave.; 952.345.3380
Campfire Mocha
Caribou Coffee puts the best summer treat into a mug with their popular Campfire Mocha. Melting your choice of dark, milk or white chocolate, the barista then combines espresso with marshmallow flavoring, topping off the festive beverage with whipped cream, mini-marshmallows and chocolate chips. Who needs a bonfire? Several Edina locations
Caramel Sea Salt Latte
The Caramel Sea Salt Latte is the best selling drink on People’s Organic’s menu, regardless of the season, and it is easy to see why. The trend of mixing sea salt and buttery caramel has been all over the culinary scene lately, so it’s no surprise that it showed up in a coffee drink. Its tantalizing mix of salty and sweet will satisfy any craving. 3545 Galleria; 952.426.1856
Scottie’s Mint Mocha
Is there any ingredient that screams “winter” more than the taste of refreshing mint? Ambrosia Espresso doesn’t think so, and that’s why they combined mint and delicious chocolate syrup to create the Scottie’s Mint Mocha. Topped with chocolate mints and whipped cream, this drink just might be the reason why this coffee shop is constantly buzzing. 7373 France Ave.; 952.831.6232
