Brewed for Freedom: Celebrate the 4th of July with Coffee, Creativity & Independence

America runs on... espresso.

While fireworks light up the sky and grills fire up across the country, let’s not forget the unsung hero of every great celebration: coffee. Whether you're fueling up for a morning parade, powering through a backyard BBQ, or prepping to stay up for that final firework, coffee is the spark that keeps the party going.

This 4th of July, we're raising a mug to independence — not just America’s, but yours. Because there’s nothing more American than doing things your way, especially when it comes to how you brew.


☕ 5 Patriotic Ways to Celebrate with Coffee

1. The Red, White & Brew Latte

Create a festive latte with strawberry syrup (red), steamed milk (white), and a shot of espresso. Top with whipped cream and crushed freeze-dried blueberries for a patriotic flair.

2. Cold Brew Freedom Floats

Pour cold brew over vanilla ice cream in a mason jar, add a splash of cream, and enjoy a creamy, caffeinated twist on a classic float.

3. Firecracker Affogato

Drop a scoop of cherry or raspberry sorbet into a glass and pour a hot shot of espresso over it. Sweet, tart, bold — and perfectly explosive.
