Atomic Coffee

Did you know that today is one of the BEST ways to make your voice heard on the LOCAL level?!? If you go vote, and I know upstanding people like you will, they even give you a FREE STICKER!!! 🤪 And they’re pretty cute this year if you ask us 👍🏼

Featured Drinks: Mango Peach Tulsi & a mixture of our house made lemonade mixed with Mango Peach Tulsi.

We’ve been dreading posting about these two iced beverages on our spring menu. They were centered around some strong feelings we have had since the last election and the “man” put in charge of our country. We’ve paired them together because the topics go hand in hand.

In the Midwest, we sometimes live in a little bubble and cannot see past our own experiences. However, it is imperative we remove our rose-colored glasses and look at both history and current factual data. How does a man so aligned with white supremacy get voted into office in the first place? How does a man who makes a mockery of other humans by posting memes of them as monkeys still hold such a high position? He can say it was just a joke, but his record of discrimination proves otherwise. Sounds like some serious MONKEY BUSINESS to me. This is where the WHITE DREAD comes into play.

As a proud German from Russia (there are a lot of us in this region) I can say I’m filled with white dread. This doesn’t mean I’m not proud of my heritage, it just means I’m not scared to see how my whiteness has given me privileges not granted to all. We urge you to reflect and do the same.

Ta-Nehisi Coates states in his book “Between the World and Me”: “What I want you to know is that this is not your fault, even if it is ultimately your responsibility.” We’ll leave you to meditate on that.

Happy April?!? 🙃

We have decided to be closed today due to the weather. To be more transparent, our car almost got stuck MULTIPLE times on our less than mile drive into the store this morning and started sliding backwards at an underpass. We want to keep you, and our staff, safe and cozy this holiday weekend. We apologize in advance if that ruins any of your weekend plans.

We will be closed tomorrow for Easter and opening at 8am Eastern Monday. See you then!
