Toddy Cold Brew Coffee & Tea 

This month we had the opportunity to brew abroad at the beautiful Toddy Cafe just a few miles from our Loveland location. Thinking outside of the box, or rather inside the decanter, we collaborated with Toddy to create a few new cold brew recipes for the warmer months ahead. Versatile, cost-efficient and deliciously smooth, it’s not hard to see why cold brew is such a coveted summertime refreshment!
