At Rรชve Coffee Lab in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, every last signature drink is created in-house by talented, creative baristas. The company hosts a signature drink competition for every season of the year with cash prizes to the top four. Fostering this kind of creativity results in delicious beveragesโ€”take the NOLA Egg Cream from barista Kylie Bihm. The drink takes the classic egg cream (seltzer, milk, chocolate) and steps it up a notch.

We spoke with Creative Director Carter Liles to learn more.

Is your signature drink served in a particular vessel? How did you make this choice?

Itโ€™s served in a pink Fortessa tableware beaded glass. We chose this for its beauty as well as its texture which resembles the bubbles of a soda.
