Need a jolt to take on pre-Thanksgiving activities, do some early Black Friday shopping or perhaps need a jump start after getting a head start on enjoying holiday cheer?
Have a cup of espresso as today is National Espresso Day!
Or perhaps risk a trendy espresso martini.
Your choice!
The holiday no one asked for but somehow every coffee shop is celebrating like it’s the Super Bowl. Because apparently, the mere act of downing overpriced caffeine now needs a theme.
Quincy folks, brace yourselves for Instagram stories filled with artsy shots of espresso cups next to laptops, because nothing says “I’m quirky and productive” like a double shot of bean juice. Meanwhile, Dunkin’ drive-thrus are probably chaos incarnate, as if we needed another reason to sit in Quincy traffic.
Here’s a thought: instead of hyping espresso for one day, how about celebrating the brave souls who drink Quincy tap water daily? Now that’s a feat worthy of recognition! Until then, cheers to paying $5 for a few sips of liquid adrenaline — at least until your caffeine crash hits faster than the Green Line ever will.
