Have You Tried The New Summer Drink At Napa Valley Coffee Roasting Co.?

Napa Valley Coffee Roasting Company has introduced a new coffee drink for summer -- the “Espressito” consisting of two shots of espresso over ice, combined with fresh mint which has been muddled with simple syrup and a splash of tonic water -- and served in a pint glass with mint leaf decoration!

“We are launching a new summer drink which was inspired by the Mojito. This drink is a perfect summer solution for those who crave a double espresso,” said general manager Doug Dunlap.

Through May 11, the Roasting Company is welcoming Instagram and Facebook discussion and depictions of the Espressito, and will offer a coupon for a free Espressito after a customer posts on Instagram (@NapaValleyCoffee), Twitter (@NVCRC) or Facebook!

The Napa Valley Coffee Roasting Company has two locations in the Napa Valley.

Spring hours in Napa at 948 Main Street at First (707/224-2233) are seven days from 6:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.; in St. Helena at 1400 Oak Avenue at Adams (707/963-4491), 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

In light of the plastic bag ban, the Roasting Company now is selling reusable cloth tote bags at both locations for $3.95.
