J.P. Licks, the award winning homemade ice cream and coffee café with eight shops in the Boston area, has expanded their product line with more upscale offerings. Loose leaf teas and hot breakfast are now available at every store and French Press coffee can be enjoyed at their locations in Jamaica Plain, Coolidge Corner, One Brigham Circle, West Roxbury and Harvard Square.
As roasters of their own fair trade and organic coffee beans, J.P. Licks will continue to brew their coffee in the traditional manner for customers as well as offer French Press coffee for those who prefer an extremely rich and robust cup of coffee. French Press coffee is made with J.P. Licks’ fresh roasted beans, but prepared using a “press pot” where the ground coffee is steeped in hot water (similar to tea) for several minutes before being pressed to the bottom of the pot. Because of the way French Press coffee is made, J.P. Licks outfitted select stores with special hot water dispensers.
For folks who prefer fresh brewed, loose leaf tea, J.P. Licks has added Numi Loose Leaf Teas, which are Kosher and many are Fair Trade Certified. Numi is known for their organic, hand-blended whole leaf teas, fresh pure herbs and real fruits which ensure the best tasting tea around.
J.P. Licks Redefines Breakfast
Hot breakfast is now on the menu at J.P. Licks. Patrons can choose from a bowl of thick and creamy homemade Hot Oatmeal served with a choice of brown sugar, raisons, walnuts, and honey or a warm flaky Spinach and Cheese Croissant for a great start to the day. Homemade waffles are also offered daily from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Jamaica plain store.
“We’re incorporating these particular items, which are more labor intensive and more upscale, to better satisfy the demands of our ‘dine-in’ breakfast customers. This is just the beginning. Customer demand for loose leaf teas is significant, yet there aren’t many places in the area that have the capability for offering it like we do now,” noted Kim Sawchuk, Director of Operations at J.P. Licks.
