“The last coffee cart showed up with a cheap espresso machine from Amazon. This year we hired La Vita. Night and day.”
Level It Up
Our standard setup already delivers a full espresso bar. But if you want that extra “Whoa, they thought of everything” — here’s how:
water_drop Cold Brew & Nitro
Add a dedicated cold brew menu — smooth, bold, served on tap. Go full nitro for that creamy, cascading finish. Great for summer events or offices that run on caffeine.
local_cafe Milk Alternatives
Oat milk is already included. But if your crowd needs coconut, almond, or soy, we’ve got you covered.
emoji_food_beverage Chai & Tea Service
Two kinds of chai (sweet + spicy) and six premium teas from Steven Smith. Real stuff your tea crowd will actually drink.
ac_unit Iced Drink Upgrade
Want everything cold? Iced lattes, iced mochas, iced chai — whatever’s on the hot menu gets a chill version.
cloud Cold Foam Toppers
Sweet cream cold foam in rotating flavors. Maple Cream, Cherry, Pistachio — it floats like a cloud and makes iced drinks feel fancy.
more_time Extra Service Time
Need more than 2 hours? Add as much time as you need. We’ll keep pouring until the last guest is caffeinated.
coffee Decaf & Skim
We’ve got decaf and skim milk options on deck. Because someone’s going to ask.
The Ripples Experience
Put your logo, QR code, message, or yes — your dog — right on the foam. It’s edible ink printed on each latte in real time.
People take photos. They post. You win.
