It’s never too early for Columbia Street Roastery’s holiday flavors

Some of us are ready for decorations and lights and Mariah Carey and some of us are not, but I feel like grabbing a couple of holiday-themed flavored coffees from Columbia Street is a reasonable compromise. It’s a quiet way getting the the spirit…dipping a toe into the season. I love their fall flavors the most, but these are a close second. My go-to selections are Holiday Cheer, Crazy Elf, and Jingle Bell Java, but I am eyeballing Egg Nog Toddy this time. I’m curious to see how this plays out in a cup of coffee.

One of my favorite things to add to gifts for family are their little single packets of flavors. Keep an eye out for their 12 days of Christmas pack of these as shopping season nears.
