Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha
Pair with: Bell’s Peppermint Snickerdoodles and Metropolitan Market Cookie Dough Cake Square
Candy cane dreams come to life in our Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha. This cheerful cup combines espresso, peppermint syrup, and white chocolate sauce—perfect for exploring the tree farm, driving around to look at Christmas lights, or enjoying during any festive outing.
About the pairings: Seattle-based Bell’s Cookies bakes chewy, tantalizing treats bursting with holiday spirit. Their Peppermint Snickerdoodle delivers the classic flavor of a cinnamon-sugar cookie spruced up with the cool flavor of peppermint.
One of our seasonal bakery additions, the Cookie Dough Cake Square, offers a deliciously decadent counterpoint to the refreshing peppermint beverage: three layers of chocolate cake topped with gooey morsels of edible cookie dough. Consider it a little gift to yourself!
Cranberry Mulled Cider
Pair with: Miss Ann’s Sweet Potato Pie and Metropolitan Market Hazelnut Boule
A festive twist on a cold-weather favorite—warm cranberry juice mingles with mulling spices for a sweet-tart sip full of seasonal flavor. It’s a cozy pick for anyone seeking a caffeine-free option, including the littlest holiday elves.
About the pairings: The rich, earthy sweetness of Miss Ann’s Sweet Potato Pie contrasts beautifully with the bright cranberry flavors. Each sip refreshes your palate for another delicious bite.
Our Metropolitan Market Hazelnut Boule has a roasted, nutty flavor that shines alongside the vibrant zing of the cider. Together, they make a comforting break from the holiday bustle.
Pumpkin Spice Latte
Pair with: Metropolitan Market Pumpkin Pie and Tres Lecheria Pumpkin Chai Cake
Still clinging to the last leaves of fall? So are we! Our Pumpkin Spice Latte is available in-store all the way through December, so you can sip on a comforting mug of autumn even when snowflakes fall.
About the pairings: Pumpkin + pumpkin = perfection! Our beloved Metropolitan Market Pumpkin Pie, crafted by Wild Wheat Bakery, doubles down on the cozy fall flavors. For another festive match, try local bakery Tres Lecheria’s Pumpkin Chai Cake. Both satisfy those lingering autumn cravings with rich sweetness and cinnamon-laced spice.
Eggnog Latte
Pair with: Metropolitan Market Pecan Pie and Bell’s Lebkuchen Cookies
The secret to our Eggnog Latte’s holiday magic? Locally made Twin Brook Creamery Eggnog, described by our team as “ice cream in liquid form.” Paired with espresso, this creamy seasonal favorite brings a little extra joy to your coffee break.
About the pairings: Baked by the talented crew at Wild Wheat Bakery, our Metropolitan Market Pecan Pie delivers the crunch and rich, praline-like sweetness you love. Its nutty flavors are a delightful partner to the creamy Eggnog Latte.
For a taste of holiday tradition, reach for Bell’s Lebkuchen Cookies. These German-style sweets are made for sharing during the festive season, with warming spices like ginger and nutmeg that complement the latte beautifully.
Classic Latte
Pair with: Dupar Pear Cake and Grand Central Bakery Panettone
Looking for a little comfort between holiday errands? You can’t go wrong with our signature latte. Smooth espresso and steamed milk make a cozy companion to the season’s sweetest treats.
About the pairings: Crafted with Yakima-grown pears and filled with vanilla bean cream cheese frosting, the Dupar Pear Cake brings delicate fruit flavor and creamy sweetness to your coffee break.
Grand Central Bakery’s Panettone is a holiday specialty that takes more than 36 hours to create. The loaves are hung upside down as they cool to help preserve their lofty shape and soft, delicate interior. Butter a slice and enjoy it alongside our classic latte for an elegant afternoon treat.
A tip from our team: Panettone makes spectacular French toast, too—just the thing for a festive holiday brunch!
