Hey collegiettes! You may have noticed that it’s getting cold in Davis, especially if you have classes that end around seven p.m. or later. Get your freezing hands on some hot beverages like hot chocolate or coffee in downtown Davis.
1. Root of Happiness (or Kava Bar)
You only need to be 18 or older to take a sip of their sedative brew, made from the crushed roots of a plant of the pepper family. Try their blended-from-scratch Chief’s Chai, or Spicy Mayan Hot Chocolate!
