Coffee quote for election day
Categories: Coffee Shops, Culture“Over second and third cups flow matters of high finance, high state, common gossip and low comedy. [Coffee] is a social binder, a warmer of tongues, a soberer of minds, a stimulant of wit, a foiler of sleep if you want it so. From roadside mugs to the classic demi-tasse, it is the perfect democrat.” ~Author Unknown
You heard it here: at least two cups of coffee for everyone before you vote!
This afternoon I dragged myself into Jeremy’s Starbucks and squeaked out an order for a redeye (brewed coffee with an added shot of espresso). He was serving Aged Sumatra, a bean that will be available tomorrow for purchase, along with their Thanksgiving blend. The Sumatra was amazing. It gave me a few more minutes of energy and life!
By the way, stop in to Starbucks tomorrow after you vote. If you tell them you voted, they will give you a free cup of coffee. You can watch the promotion below. I love that. Because when tomorrow is over, we’re all going to still live in this country together, and get back to working for the King, not the President. Have a great day, everyone!

Redeye, huh? In Pittsburgh, we call that a “shot in the dark.” Regardless, that’s what I needed this morning. I will go get my freebie later on today - thank you, Starbucks.

AHHH! It makes me so upset that I don’t qualify for for a free coffee today. I do however think I know of a place that has a free coffee for me every once in a while and it’s better than Starbucks
