Garden Party! What better at a Garden Party than some tea! Blueberry Lemon curd cake served with a lavender herbal tea. 🤤 This lavender super blue tea will be on our menu later this summer, so all will get to enjoy its light lavender taste. It stands alone or add a little honey or sugar to really bring out the lavender taste 💜.

Here is a piece of the story from Side Dish with Schniper, with concept art on what we envision Between the Sips to look like....or close to it for all you peeping Tom's 😂

For anyone who follows Matthew Schnipers Side Dish newsletter, we were recently interviewed, and discussed in today's newsletter! 💕 We will spill the tea later today for anyone who doesn't follow Side Dish with Schniper! But if you love food and drinks I definitely recommend following him for all the yummy Intel for the Colorado Springs area. 🤤

In other exciting news, our sign goes up next week!

For those who like to sneak peeks through the windows (you creepers 👀 JK lol) I know It doesn't look like much going on inside, but there is still a lot happening behind the scenes. Once the final details are hashed out, the inside will move fast.

I know you all are excited, and so are we to be sharing this journey with all of you, but just be as patient as an individual waiting on the next book in their favorite series to come out. 🤣 We will be announcing our launch soon!

Progress update!

Today we did a walkthrough with our project manager!

We’re continuing to go over details, layouts, and plans as we bring Between the Sips to life.

So excited to keep sharing this journey with you all!

✨ We’ve had so many new faces join us recently, and I just want to say… THANK YOU! 💛

Thank you for following along, for sharing our page, and for all the kind words, excitement, and love you’ve been sending our way, it truly means more than you know.

It’s been incredible to see this community already forming as we bring Between the Sips to life.

Behind the scenes, things are moving right along:
-We’ve been finalizing plans with our project manager for the space
-And (one of my favorite parts!) testing tea samples to find the perfect blends

Because while we’re a bookstore… we’re also a tea room ☕📖
…and we want every cup to pair just as beautifully as the stories on our shelves.

Be sure to keep an eye out for our Facebook event—we’ll be announcing our Grand Opening there as soon as everything is steeped and ready to go!

Thank you again for being part of this journey. I can’t wait to welcome you to Between the Sips 💕
