Brewing up seasonal delights

Wake up and smell the orange vanilla latte — that’s how the saying goes right? The bluebonnets are peaking through, piles of clothes are waiting to be donated, and eateries are announcing new seasonal menu offerings which can only mean one thing — spring is officially here.
Our local coffee scene is tamping up some citrus sips. Here’s a few drinks we’re looking to try this season.
The Primiavera Menu is here. Expect to sip on the Daddy is a State of Mind (cold brew with pistachio cold foam), Mujera Virtuosa (cold brew with rosemary honey cold foam), or try a little bit of everything via its Primiavera Flight.
Enjoy five spring drink menu items such as the Golden Hour (iced matcha + mango pureé), and the Spring Fling (housemade rosemary lavender syrup in a hot or iced latte). See the full list of drinks.
Amazon’s Big Spring Sale may last until Monday, March 31, but some of the best discounts are for one-day only. These are some of today’s best Lightning Deals:
My top pick for a spring beverage would go to Southbound’s Golden Hour. After the first sip, you are transported to a lush beach escape right in Southtown. 10/10 would recommend.
