There’s nothing better than a cup or coffee or tea, hot or cold, to keep you going through the day. In Madison County there are several places to get your java fix, with a myriad of specialty products.
Cups has been curating Mississippi's coffee experience since 1993. They roast and flavor specialty coffees from around the world right down the street in Ridgeland, and have 11 cafe locations throughout Mississippi.
One of our absolute favorites is the Blondie, one of Cups long-time signature specialty drinks. It is a combination of Ghirardelli white chocolate and caramel sauce combined with espresso or coffee and textured milk then topped with whipped cream and caramel. Served as a hot, iced or frozen beverage.
Beginning this month, Cups is going to begin serving a limited seasonal drink, Chardamon Chai Tea. The Cardamom Chai Tea is a loose leaf chai tea (Indian Black Tea, ginger, clove, cinnamon, peppery awesomeness) steeped in water with a shot of a small batch simple Cardamom Syrup from Pink House Alchemy who we're partnering with on some of our seasonal drinks this year.
At the Township of Colony Park, cool down this spring with one of Fusion Coffeehouse’s signature drinks, The Highlander.
At Fusion, you do not have to worry about beating the heat because one of their most popular drinks according to owner Tripp Douglas, The Highlander, can be served hot, over ice, or frozen. The drink is a keen mix of espresso, for that kick in the pants, and is rounded out by the flavors of other ingredients that include frothed milk with white chocolate, a hint of toasted marshmallow flavoring, and a dusting of cinnamon. The frothed milk and marshmallow flavoring bring a levity to the weight of the espresso and chocolate.
