Frappes, Matcha and Milkshakes for Events in Atlanta
Blended iced coffee frappes, matcha, and thick milkshakes, topped with whipped cream and made to order at the truck window.
Not every guest wants hot coffee. Blended drinks are what many guests, and almost every teenager, order first. We make frappes, matcha and milkshakes to order on the truck, topped with whipped cream and handed through the window.
Frappes
Blended iced coffee drinks in four flavors: Oreo, mocha, caramel and matcha. The frappe menu page describes each. They are thick, cold and sweet, and they suit warm afternoons and guests who treat a drink as dessert.
Matcha
Our matcha is a blended frappe: stone-ground green tea blended cold and creamy, earthy and a little sweet. If matcha is what your guests ask for, tell us when you book and we will plan the stock.
Milkshakes
Three: chocolate, strawberry and berry, blended with ice cream and finished with whipped cream. See the shakes menu page. Shakes are a hit with children and teenagers, and with anyone at a birthday party.
Planning for the pace
A blended drink takes longer than an espresso drink, and a long list of flavors slows the window further. For a large crowd we suggest keeping the blended menu short and the coffee side quick. We wrote about how it runs in a frappe bar at your event.
Who orders blended drinks
Teenagers, children at birthday parties, and adults who want something sweet. A frappe or a shake is the drink people order when they are celebrating, which is why they dominate at parties and warm afternoons and fade in the cold months. If your guest list leans young, plan a blended menu, and if it leans toward an office crowd, plan mostly espresso with one or two blended options.
Whipped cream, toppings and the look
Blended drinks come finished with whipped cream, and the cup is part of the appeal. They are good in photographs, and guests like to carry them around. If you have a theme or a color scheme, mention it when you book and we will see what we can do within the menu.
A note on timing
Because every blended drink is made one at a time, a very large crowd that arrives all at once will wait longer than at an espresso-only window. We plan for that by staffing the window to your headcount and keeping the blended list tight. A short, well-chosen menu serves more people, and serves them faster, than a long one.
Events that book them
Teen and family parties (sweet sixteens and quinceañeras), birthday parties, school events, festivals and company days in summer. A mix with coffee suits most crowds; see coffee catering in Atlanta.
Send the date, place and headcount on the booking form, and we will plan the menu with you.
