The Buzz at Zizzo’s

I stopped by one of my favorite coffee shops the other day to see what was new, and I found my friend Eli making a customer an Espresso Milkshake. The coffee shop has completely changed up their look under the new owners, and they also added an ice cream fridge and feature a variety of flavors of Marianne’s Ice Cream. For those who know, this ice cream uses butterfat and is one of the richest and most decadent treats you could want on a hot summer day.

Ice Cream and Espresso for Lunch

I was in the mood for something delicious, and an Espresso Milkshake sounded like my kind of bad idea. I was on my way to help a friend move some things and then exercise by climbing hills, so I thought it would all balance out by evening. I chose the Chocolate Chocolate Chip ice cream, and added three shots to create a completely cheat day worthy concoction. Topped off with some chocolate whipped cream, it was as good as it sounds.

Brown Ranch Marketplace

To be completely candid, I do media for Brown Ranch Marketplace in Capitola, where Zizzo’s is located. However, my review of this rich chocolatey drink has nothing to do with work. It was sheer pleasure. I am also genuinely fans of Eli and Amy, the new owners, and the amazing makeover transformation they achieved. If you want to treat yourself to something extremely good this summer, go to Zizzo’s and ask for an Espresso Milkshake. Tell them Jake sent you.
