Summer in the Midwest :: an endless string of afternoons at the lake, tee ball games past sunset, fourth of July parades and small town festivals and all things simple, joyful, life-giving. Ok, and a little hot + humid.
Our team is over-the-moon excited about bringing you this summer menu, because we can picture these drinks fitting into your Small Town Summer plans perfectly. There are flavors here for the entire family. All ages can get excited about cookies + cream and fruity lemonades. Parents always deserve a treat in the form of a honey-sweetened latte or cold-foam-topped iced coffee.
Read on to explore the full summer menu, and get to enjoying your #smalltownsummer!
Butterfly Effect Lemonade
In a season where every flower is putting on a show and sunsets are next-level glowy, your drink needs to match the vibe. Enter the Butterfly Effect Lemonade!
A fizzy lemonade gets a tropical twist with pineapple + mango flavors, and a shot of butterfly pea tea limeade brings a lightly tart, herbal balance – plus the most gorgeous orchid hue – to your glass. This one is naturally caffeine-free and friendly for all ages. But if you’re looking for a boost, a shot of White Lotus would work perfectly here!
Cookies & Cream Frappe
Congrats! You’ve just found your perfect post-pool day treat! Sip on this frappe, blended with real Oreo® cookie crumbles, coffee, and white + dark chocolate, topped with whipped cream and a few extra cookie crumbles.
Want to level it up? Add an extra espresso shot for a punchier coffee flavor.
Dark Pistachio Cold Brew
Guaranteed to turn heads at the tee-ball game. Our signature smooth cold brew is sweetened with dark chocolate + pistachio, and topped with a decadent crown of mocha cold foam in this showstopper of an iced coffee. We love how subtly the flavors of pistachio and dark chocolate pair together, and it just looks fun too!
Feeling déjà vu? These flavors showed up the last few years in a macchiato, but we’re highlighting them in a cold brew this year. New equipment allows us to make chocolate cold foam, something we’ve wanted to feature for ages! If you’re missing the macchiato, never fear – your barista can recreate it for you.
Honeycomb Latte
Across all seven of the Summer Series flight nights, this deceptively simple latte was the most popular!
On paper, just caramel, raw honey, and vanilla. Nothing flashy on their own. But together? Summer magic. Its got a depth of flavor that stays with you and fuels the sweetest kind of day. It’s delicious in any form, but for summer, we recommend it iced + paired with your favorite milk. It gets topped off with whipped cream + a shake of crystallized honey pieces.
Available hot, iced, or blended.
Strawberry Blended Lemonade
Creamy meets sweet meets tart. You’ll get all the bright sharpness of lemonade, with the sweetness of real strawberries blended into a creamy blended vanilla base. This has become a summertime staple around Eli’s – can’t wait to serve them up once again!
Need a little boost? This one would be *perfect* with a shot of Pink Lotus!
Sunset Splash Twist
The end of the best kind of Lake Day feels like a full body exhale, with layers of sunscreen + lake water on skin warm from the sun. Stay out late enough to catch the sun sinking on the water and you’ve found Midwest heaven.
This summer’s Twist catches those last rays of sunlight in your cup with a strawberry puree cup drizzle, then splashed with a kiwi + lime + White Lotus sparkling lemonade for a fizzy, energizing finish to a perfect summer day.
Bakery
Inspiration for our summer menu bakery lineup comes from the produce abundant in every Midwest backyard garden. Zucchini, fresh berries, rhubarb, and lemon shines through some of your favorite treats of the whole year!
Blackberry Cobbler Scone
If pie for breakfast is your jam, goodness, do we have a summertime scone for you! Drawing on memories of the endless pans of cobblers and crisps Mom would whip up with whatever the orchard or garden provided that day, I’ve spent weeks perfecting this newcomer to capture that essence of childhood summers.
An ever so slightly cinnamon-spiced base holds layers of fresh blackberry jam + whole berries, topped with a toasted oatmeal streusel layer, and of course, a finishing touch of vanilla bean icing.
Chocolate Zucchini Muffin
Looking for a sweeter start to your day? Chocolate Zucchini muffins certainly do that, and woah do they pair great with a simple cup of coffee. Sip of coffee, bite of muffin, and repeat.
Everyone who has ever grown their own zucchini has reached the point of abundance where it can’t even be given away. The answer? Keep loading more and more into a chocolate muffin to balance out the mini chocolate chips right beside ‘em in every bite.
Strawberry Cheesecake Scone (WF)
Wheat-free folks, you’ve made yourself heard. This newcomer is sticking around for another season!
Winning hearts all around is this gorgeous cream cheese + lemon zested scone, with a generous layer of pink strawberry + vanilla icing. The cream cheese adds the perfect richness to our classic scone base, turning the familiar flaky scones almost into dessert territory. What a happy detour!
Rhubarb Coffee Cake
File this one under ‘church cookbook classics’! This brown sugar crumb cake is studded with sharp, fresh rhubarb and graced with a topping of spiced pecan streusel, making it a perfect Midwest treat. We source our rhubarb from a customer’s garden while it’s in season, so hurry in.
