Hey Coffee Beanery fam! ☕ Grab your mug (and maybe some tissues for the Buttercake tears) because it's another fun, unfiltered Sip and Share LIVE with Britain, Laurie, and Patti!

We're mourning the loss of Buttercake—it's officially gone (RIP to those last 7 bags 😭), and Georgia Peach is getting tons of "bring it back" requests too. Fruit flavors are killing it right now! We chat about why they disappear so fast and tease potential comebacks.

We went full blind taste test on Dubai chocolate-inspired coffees: ours vs. another company's. Spoiler: Ours wins again (shocker, right? 😂). We break down why nailing that pistachio-knafeh-chocolate profile was one of our toughest flavor challenges ever. Packaging talk too—what do YOU want on a 12 oz bag? Zippers? Tear tops? No more tape? We're brainstorming big changes (new machines, no more resealable tape headaches), but grinding fresh for custom orders means we have to think functional first.

Random chaos as always:

• Concert recap: Zara Larsson was stunning (Malibu Barbie vibes!), but the pit was AGGRESSIVE—line cutters getting flashlighted out by security, freezing temps, no coats... wild!
• Key West throwback stories (absinthe green fairy drama, anyone? Branson was out for the count 😂)
• Michigan geography rambles: Upper Peninsula debates, Maine's new store (17-hour drive through Canada?!), scary bridges, and why we're terrible at maps (that surprise US quiz was brutal!)
• Robotics mom life: Battle bots, chicken dance energy, 3D printing parts, and how it sets kids up for success (college apps, co-op jobs, oh my!)
• Super Nanny binges, parenting wins, and why schedules + positive reinforcement change everything
• Behind-the-scenes: Bean truck drama, K-Cup explosions, puffy bags = fresh roast, and why we always run out of everything (fresh roasting life!)

Shoutouts to Mo, Deborah, Bill, and everyone hanging with us—love the comments! St. Patrick's Day sale was a huge success (only one tiny complaint... miracle!), Cantina boxes shipping soon, and we're prepping more fun flavors.

Hey Coffee Beanery fam! ☕ Today it's the B-Team running the show—Logan and Will stepping in while the girls are out sick (get well soon, ladies!). We're keeping the energy high and diving into something super cool: freeze-dried coffee "ice cubes" (aka instant cold brew pucks) from Cometier, curated by coffee YouTuber James Hoffmann.

We popped in two varieties:

• Geisha – Super floral and fruity (pear, jasmine, papaya notes), one of the world's priciest coffees. Smelled insane right out of the puck!
• Dark Roast Brazil – Rich, bold, and roasty. Strong aroma, but we both leaned toward this one for that classic dark roast kick.

How it works: Drop the little frozen puck in your cup, add 6-8 oz hot water (or cold for iced), give it a stir (or a patented shake 😂), and boom—instant coffee that melts fast. We compared it to making your own at home: brew a strong cold brew concentrate, freeze it in ice cube trays, and you've basically got the same thing (minus the fancy freeze-drying process). Less acidity, more concentrated caffeine punch, no watered-down iced coffee!

Our honest take:

• Tastes like legit brewed coffee—not bad at all!
• Geisha was smooth and aromatic; Brazil felt bolder and more our speed.
• Convenient for travel, camping, or lazy days, but yeah... kinda pricey for what you get (8-packs curated by James Hoffmann).
• Pro tip: Use less water if you like it stronger—we dialed it back and it hit better.

We chat about why coffee's awesome—endless ways to brew, experiment, and find what works for you. Pour-over getting boring? French press old news? Try these bad boys (or DIY it!). Shoutouts to Mo (happy birthday & those cookies sound amazing!), Patty, Deborah, Melissa, and everyone hanging with us on this rainy Flushing, Michigan morning.

The girls will be back next week with the full crew for more detailed rambles, but we hope the B-Team kept you entertained! ☕❤️ Drop your thoughts: Would you try freeze-dried coffee cubes? DIY cold brew ice? Let us know!

Thanks for joining the chaos. Have a great Wednesday! Logan & Will The Coffee Beanery Team

Hey Coffee Beanery fam! ☕ Grab your favorite mug and join us—Britain, Laurie, and Patti—for a fun, totally unfiltered Sip and Share LIVE! We’re spilling the beans (literally) on everything from our epic Jamaican adventure to blind-tasting that legendary Blue Mountain coffee we risked life and limb to bring home. 😅 We hauled beans straight from the Blue Mountains—think death-defying, hurricane-washed-out roads, mountain-top roasting in giant pans with the happiest Rastafarian roaster ever (and maybe a little “extra herbal” scenery nearby 👀). We blind-tasted the local stuff vs. our own 100% certified Jamaican Blue Mountain… and wow, the difference is night and day. Ours is smoother, richer, and just flat-out better—top 3% specialty beans + our patented roast process for the win every single time! We also dive into: The airport customs scare with drug dogs circling us (Claire Danes movie flashbacks, anyone? Thank goodness they walked right by!) Why tea pods are probably never joining our lineup (steep time drama is REAL—green tea needs 2-3 mins, not a quick shot!) Live R&D tasting session: new flavored coffees like chocolate cherry almond (those amaretto notes tho!), plus why Michigan Cherry is STILL our #1 bestseller forever Random chaos convos: Japan trip excitement (kimono photo shoots! Tokyo Disney!), bizarre “man-bumping” stories from Japan, Disney dark-side whispers, Florida man pool-crasher tales, geese attacking golfers, why we’re in the top 5% of businesses that survive 50 years, and way too many side tangents at once because that’s just how we roll! It’s messy, hilarious, full of shoutouts to our amazing VIP crew, birthday love for Mo, feisty comments from Patty, and all the love from YOU who make these lives so special. If you love real-deal coffee talk, zero-filter stories, quality beans you can actually taste, and hanging with your favorite coffee crew—stick around, smash that like, subscribe, and join the Sip and Share squad! ❤️ Shop our single-origin Jamaican, flavored favorites, teas, and subscription boxes—links in bio/profile!

Good morning, Coffee Beanery fam! ☕✨ Join us—Laurie, Patti, Britain, and our special guest (my amazing mom, Jane!)—for a hilarious Sip and Share LIVE full of baking chaos, blind taste tests, and three generations spilling the tea (or coffee) on our brand-new New York City themed subscription box! We haven't done a baking challenge in FOREVER, and boy did we go all out this time! Inspired by iconic NYC flavors, we each tackled one of the box's star treats: black & white cookies, cinnamon babka swirl, strawberry lime cheesecake, and apple cronuts. It's Nailed It or Failed It style—because let's be real, not all of us are pro bakers 😂 (shoutout to the reigning "Nailed It" champ Britain... but watch out, Mom's in the house!) We blind-tasted the full lineup decaf-style (for Patti's sake!): Black & White Cookie – Soft, cakey perfection with that classic half-chocolate, half-vanilla balance. Pairs SO well with the coffee! Babka Swirl (Cinnamon) – Buttery, twisted bread with ribbons of cinnamon. Gorgeous looks, and Mom nailed the braid! Cheesecake (with strawberry & lime twist) – Creamy, rich, decadent... and Lauries’s lime swap was genius. High-protein vibes? We're calling it healthy 😏 Apple Cronut – Flaky layers, spiced apple filling, cream cheese glaze, and caramel drizzle. Messy? Yes. Delicious? Absolutely! We dish on the baking drama: water baths, room-temp cream cheese for hours, rising dough at midnight, hunting for cake flour, and why cheesecake is secretly a protein powerhouse (790 cals, but 20g protein—math checks out!). Mom stole the show with her flawless cookies, Britain defended her crown, Patti brought the cheesecake glow-up, and Laurie... well, let's just say the process video is coming (and it's gold!). Plus random fun: VIP voting on looks (go enter if you haven't—Coffee Beanery VIP Fans on FB!), why lime over lemon, toxic love stories from Wuthering Heights (we saw it last week—artsy, beautiful, but SO over-the-top ridiculous 😂), Gone with the Wind vibes, historical fun facts, and way too many side tangents because that's how we roll! If you love flavored coffee adventures, sister (and mom!) banter, real talk on our monthly boxes, and treats that taste like NYC without the plane ticket—watch till the end, smash like, subscribe, and join the fun! The New York box is LIVE and flying off shelves—grab yours before it's gone! Links in profile. Shop the full NYC Collection: Black & White Cookie, Babka Swirl, Cheesecake, Apple Cronut (decaf too!).

Hey coffee fam! ☕🍩 Laurie, Britain, and Patti (with Duke being extra naughty and begging for bites) are live on Sip and Share, celebrating post-Fat Tuesday with a massive pączki tasting straight from M Street Bakery—these Michigan/Midwest yeast-raised donuts are filled to bursting and way better than grocery store versions! We tried every gourmet flavor they had left: raspberry, lemon cookie (with Oreo on top!), carrot cake (actual cake inside—wild!), cherry (glittery and bedazzled), Dubai chocolate (messy but amazing), bumpy cake (classic Michigan buttercream ribbons + chocolate), cannoli-style Italian cream, strawberries & cream, and more. Super fluffy, huge portions, and totally worth the drive—Laurie even got Sedona a Fruity Pebbles milkshake loaded with Rice Krispie treats, rock candy, suckers, and chaos (half the toppings got tossed!). They do insane pasta cones, edible cookie dough, and they're catering a wedding—Instagram gold! We chatted: Is pączki a Midwest thing or everywhere? (Big in Polish communities like Hamtramck—lines for days on Fat Tuesday!) Reality TV obsession: Dubai Bling on Netflix—unhinged rich drama, subtitles not matching the Arabic chaos (Real Housewives on steroids!) Sedona's big week: Passed her driver's test (cameras allowed!), hit Target, antique shopping, visited grandma—all with zero money 😂 Lauri tracked her at 89 mph—slow down, kid! Parallel parking nightmares (we hate it—psychotic or just us?) Gymnastics comp tickets at MSU for $12 cash—insane deal! Travel sports woes (dance point shoe shortage from Russia shipment issues, baseball fees—no D3 athletic scholarships per NCAA rules) Girl Scout cookies (buy for the cause, but they go stale!) Wild animal stories: Invasive iguana tacos in Florida (eggs sauce from the mom—gross 🤢), turtle hibernation (they breathe through their butts?!), no starfish smuggling, leave wildlife alone President's Day sale still rolling—code BREW for 20% off sitewide (snag retired flavors/2.5 oz bags quick!) Next week: New York-themed subscription box spoilers on IG (Black & White Cookie, Babka Swirl, more Big Apple vibes) Duke stole the show nibbling and stressing over the sugar, we laughed about plant BFF tattoos with Angelica, and dropped life lessons: Don't hibernate turtles in holes, don't put eggs in drawers, and share the pączki (or hoard 'em—we get it). Whether you're sugar-crashing after Lent, bingeing Dubai Bling, or just here for the donut love and coffee vibes, join us for the full recap! Who's had pączki?

Hey coffee crew! ☕❤️ Britain, Patti, and Will here (Laurie’s off crushing a meeting today) spilling the beans on our latest Sip and Share sesh—complete with stuffed-up noses, jury duty drama, Valentine's-flavored coffee tastings, and way too much Olympic obsession!

We kicked things off complaining about colds (man colds? Nah, just headaches for Will), then Patti dropped her first-ever jury duty story—medical malpractice trial, wild excuses (people crying, hating hospitals, no rides after 3 months' notice?!), sneaky background checks on jurors (where do they get those photos?!), and the judge calling out liars. Super entertaining, nerve-wracking, and glad she dodged it—no dead body photos for this coffee crew!

We brewed up Valentine's vibes with our chocolatey lineup: White Chocolate Strawberry (our fave for starting the day romantic-style), Chocolate Raspberry (classic and fruity), and Chocolate Cherry (newer but delish—think Queen Anne's covered cherries). Paired with our heart pod boxes and little chocolate pod sets—way better than actual candy for not adding pounds! Last day of the sale too—code LOVE for 15% off (grab it before Valentine's Saturday!). We cleared out some leftover 2.5 lb subscription bags ($2 each—Butterscotch Pudding, Kentucky Butter Cake, Banana Pudding, Banoffee Pie vibes) to avoid inventory nightmares. And shoutout to the fan who snagged 77 bags of retiring flavors—legend!

Olympics talk took over—Milano Cortina 2026 is wrapping up (Feb 6-22 in Italy), and we're hooked! Ilia Malinin's insane backflips (banned since '77, allowed in '24—he's the first to land one at Olympics, even one-footed!), Lindsey Vonn's heartbreaking crash (tough injury comeback story—airlifted, compartment syndrome scare), women's hockey rivalries (USA vs Canada—brutal!), curling (like panic-Swiffering before guests), skeleton (face-down terror on ice), moguls/bumps, and that late-bloomer speed skater qualifying in months. Snoop as USA mascot, Cool Runnings vibes for bobsled—pure excitement! Dad jokes included: How do you stop Canadian bacon from curling? Take away their brooms! 😂

We chatted plant addictions (new fenestrations! New leaf excitement!), decaf Swiss Water Process to keep us sane, competitor coffee fails (bitter airport espresso—ew), and how our flavored decafs rock. Plus, big love to our fundraiser folks (shoutout Bill!), subscription box theme drop (New York City—pizza rat memories, no rat-flavored coffee tho!), and why we can't live without our brew.

Whether you're jury-dodging, Olympic-binging, or just craving chocolatey coffee for Valentine's, join us for the laughs, rants, tastings, and real talk. Who's your fave Olympic moment so far? Drop it below—we're reading 'em all! And snag that sale before it's gone—code LOVE. ❤️☕

Hit play, pour a cup, and sip along with us!

Hey coffee fam! ☕🇯🇲 Grab your favorite mug because Britain, Laurie, and Patti are spilling ALL the tea (or should we say coffee?) from our epic trip to Jamaica for the Coffee Beanery 50th Anniversary kickoff convention!

We just got back from an unforgettable adventure in Ocho Rios and Montego Bay—think bumpy bus rides up the Blue Mountains (we survived those washed-out roads like champs!), watching authentic old-school roasting right over an open fire at a spot like James Dennis Coffee House, fresh beans popping off cliffs with machetes (seriously, how do they do that?!), and soaking up that island vibe after a hurricane recovery. We brought supplies, handed out high-fives, Jamaican coffee gifts to our awesome driver Ernest, and soaked in the sun we desperately needed!

Highlights include:

• Blue Hole jumps, Dunn's River Falls climbs (some of us nailed it, others... had epic fails on the flow rider 😂 Will, we're looking at you!)
• Hilarious resort shows (that Michael Jackson impersonator had us dying—zero skill, 10/10 entertainment), jerk chicken feasts, KFC that tasted like childhood (island-raised chicken is next level), curried patties, and way too many $47 floats we dragged home
• Rick's Cafe cliff jumping stories from our franchisees, ziplining, parrots at the sanctuary, and dodging wandering goats (pro tip: lightly tap one and it's yours? Island rules!)
• Gratitude moments: Seeing the real effort behind our premium Jamaican Blue Mountain (the most expensive for a reason—smooth, balanced perfection), appreciating home sweet home, and bonding with our franchise family + founders Julius and JoAnne

We chatted puppies (Duke blended right into the couch in his gray glory), dance-offs (shirtless 70-year-old energy won the day), larimar bracelets, dolphin ethics, and why America feels extra blessed after trips like this. Oh, and that short beach live last week? Blame the VIP section bouncer who waited till after to kick us out 😏

We’re still catching our breath (and tan lines are ridiculous), but we’ll be posting videos, pics, and maybe even a live tasting of our Jamaican beans next time—pour-over style to see if it gets even better!

Whether you’re a Coffee Beanery regular, dreaming of your next tropical escape, or just here for the laughs and coffee love, join us as we recap the fun, the food, the fails, and the incredible people who make our 50 years possible. Third-generation family biz vibes strong! Who's ready to sip and share the Jamaica magic with us?

Hit play, grab your brew, and let's relive it together! ☕🌴 Who's been to Jamaica or wants to go now? Drop your fave island memory or must-try food in the comments—we're reading every one!

Good morning from a VERY cold Michigan! Join Laurie, Patti, and Britain for another cozy Coffee Beanery Sip & Share live. We’re bundled up, chatting wild winter weather (negative temps, ice storms, salt shortages, and that huge pile-up in Zeeland), weird TikTok comments, chiropractor vitamin “muscle testing,” and sending prayers to Donna’s dad. The main event: we taste our January Coffee of the Month subscription box — Coffee Shop Classics! Four timeless café favorites in 2.5 oz samples (or full-size bags/pods): • Cinnamon Sugar Latte – warm cinnamon spice with creamy sweetness • Vanilla Latte – smooth, velvety, rich vanilla embrace • Salted Caramel Mocha – decadent chocolate + buttery caramel with a sea salt kiss • Caramel Macchiato – luscious golden caramel layered over creamy espresso (the group favorite!) We brew the decaf versions (our Swiss-water decaf is amazing), share honest thoughts, and remind everyone there’s NO added sugar or sweeteners in any of our flavored coffees. If you love classic coffee shop vibes without the calories, this box is pure comfort in a cup. Available now in ground or pods — grab yours before they sell out! 👉 Shop the January box + all our flavors: coffeebeanery.com 👉 Follow us on TikTok @coffeebeaneryhq for more lives! #FlavoredCoffee #CoffeeTasting #CoffeeShopClassics #SaltedCaramelMocha #CaramelMacchiato #CoffeeBeanery #SipAndShare #DecafCoffee #CoffeeLovers #JanuaryBox

Join Britain, Patti, and Will for a cozy Wednesday morning live on Coffee Beanery Sip & Share! ☕️ We kick things off with classic Michigan winter weather talk (lake-effect snow, anyone?), share our biggest fears (flying over water, snakes, and de-icing planes), and laugh about teenage boys eating frozen hamburger patties (yes, really).

The highlight? We unbox and taste two brand-new flavored coffees sent by a flavor company celebrating the rumored "U.S. Royal Wedding" of Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce: • Chai Sugar Cookie ☕️ – warm baking spices, creamy chai, and buttery cookie finish (think gingerbread meets cozy chai) • Raspberry Wedding Cake ☕️ – bright jammy raspberry, fluffy vanilla cake, delicate almond notes, and an elegant finish

We give our honest thoughts (base coffee strength, how the flavors shine, and whether they nailed the wedding theme), plus chat about Coffee Beanery favorites, past subscription box hits, flavor creation secrets, and fun mixing ideas from viewers.

Happy New Year, Sip and Share fam! It's Laurie, Patti, and Britain kicking off 2026 with Duke the barnacle (he's glued to my leg every time we leave—Daisy just bolts to her house like "peace out!" 😂). We're fighting off puppy attacks (someone's eating EVERYTHING), giving accidental Heimlichs (turns out it's risky for dogs—vet after if needed!), and spilling all the TMI as usual. We're sipping decaf (life-changing—no more caffeine crashes!) and chatting: Why decaf is freeing (drink whenever, even at night—under 100 calories with a splash of cream!), New Year's "non-resolutions" (keep the house clean 10-15 mins/night? Unconscious win!), Year of the Purge goals (basement hoarders unite—anyone need 80s costumes or 100 wedding outfits?), Family adventures (Tokyo Disney booked—beyond excited!), And why we can't stop saying "Happy New Year" (sorry, Larry David—we're invited to the 5 p.m. couch meeting 😏). We also recap the wild holiday season (busy on New Year's Eve—thanks for making our goal!), the 20% off sale wrapping up (code: newyear), and mystery bundles/gift sets still shipping. Shoutout to everyone who spoiled us with compliments last week—you're the best! What's your 2026 vibe? Favorite decaf hack? Puppy disaster story? Drop it in the comments—we're reading every one! ❤️ See you next Wednesday—stay caffeinated, safe, and full of joy in the new year, Sippers! 🥂☕🐾 #CoffeeBeanery #SipAndShare #NewYear2026 #DecafLife #DukeTheBarnacle #HolidayRecap #CoffeeLovers #MichiganMade #PuppyChaos #HappyNewYear
