Fellow's Take on Spring Breakers Coffee Box by Brandywine Coffee Roast

Here's how we brewed this cheerful couple of coffees to celebrate the energetic environment beachside and the ‘90s MTV hit show Spring Breakers. This set includes two fruity, punchy Colombian coffees:

🍓 6 oz of Strawberry Daiquiri

A bright cocktail of Catiope, Purple Caturra, and Castillo with delicious notes of strawberry, sweet lime, and mango.

🍉 6 oz of Watermelon Margarita

An intoxicating party of juicy flavors in every sip. We tasted punchy tropical fruit, fresh citrus, and watermelon candy.

Grind Guidance

Start in the middle of your espresso range on your grinder, and Series 1 will tell you to go finer or coarser after your shot pulls. It is expected that you might need to adjust based on your specific variables (i.e. location, climate, water mineral content, etc.). Small adjustments go a long way!
