Five Best Drinks from the Courtyard Cafe

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Gustavus chapter.

Craving a delicious drink, but not feeling up to ordering your usual? Fret no more. The Courtyard Cafe has plenty of delicious drink options that aren’t always on the menu. Try one of these today!

1. Hot Apple Blast

This blend of apple cider and caramel with a whipped cream topping is like drinking a picturesque autumn day. I would recommend ordering this whenever it’s cold outside, or you’re just missing the fall breeze.

2. Caramel Macchiato

Caramel, coffee, and milk that’s got just a hint of rich coffee taste. This drink is a campus favorite, and the iced version is especially nice for warm spring days!

3. Zebra Mocha

If you’ve had a rough morning and need a sugar-and-caffeine filled boost, I’d recommend the zebra mocha. It is packed with white and dark chocolate and coffee, and topped with whipped cream and chocolate chips. If you need energy, this will do it.

4. Black Tea with Lemonade

If coffee isn’t your thing, try the black tea with lemonade. This half-and-half beverage can be customized to your liking by adding flavor shots. Try mango or raspberry for a whole new experience.

5. Dirty Chai Latte

This is a popular drink on campus. If you want the sweet and spicy taste of chai tea but also a blast of caffeine, this is the drink to order. I would recommend this before a long study session, to help keep you focused.
