Coffeehouse-Style Drink at Home

That simple drip coffee sure does its job: it gets your day started, yes, but it’s just not very fun. Sipping a fancy drink in a coffee shop is an event, not simply utilitarian means to get a little caffeine kick–but who wants to fight for elbow room next to a seat near an outlet on a Sunday afternoon? Well fortunately, you can indulge in a coffeehouse-style drink from the comfort of a plush chair with the Starbucks coffee machine area at the Yards. All you need is a few simple ingredients and you can be whipping up simple and tasty drinks while you relax outside with your Sunday morning reads.

Try Torani Syrups

Adding flavored syrups to your coffee is a great way to transform a normal cup into a new treat, and there’s no better place to begin than Torani. Torani create high-quality, industry-standard syrups in a variety of flavors. Whether you prefer something classic like a nice vanilla, chocolate, or hazelnut kick, or a twist of caramel, or something a little more unexpected like salted caramel or butterscotch, Torani has a syrup for you and your next cup. They even offer seasonal flavors like Pumpkin Pie, Butter Rum, Gingerbread, and Pumpkin Spice, as well as fun choices like Chocolate Milano and Maple. A small dash of your favorite flavor in your next coffee will really take it to the next level. They even offer accompanying sauces for many flavors, which go great over a dollop of whipped cream.

Bring a biscotti

Biscotti are twice baked Italian cookies that are perfect to pair with a nice cup of coffee and they are super simple to make! For a classic biscotti, try Nonna’s Biscotti Recipe on Epicurious or for something a little different, try Chocolate Hazelnut Biscotti.

Or you can just keep it simple and have a nice, simple cup in on a comfy sofa. The Yards at Fieldside Village makes it easy to relax in style.
