Today we celebrate 13 years of cobra verde history!!! Our gallery is all done up with classic ephemera from the past and present, including a tv looping all the cobra commercials — a couple by the glorious Miss Pussycat with Will Oldham singing the cobra jingle.

Fresh original cobra verde was made for this stupendous occasion using natural process Costa Rican green coffee, orange, lemon, lime, ginger, honey, and a lil sugar. Will be available today and til we run out.

Jarrett will be giving a short talk at 1 pm chronicling the rise and life that cobra verde has thus far lived in no doubt exciting fashion.

Photo of Jarrett drinking classic cobra and Cristin with the newest iteration of the cobra crew and the first one she’s had a hand in helping concoct. Mushroom cobra! With functional mushrooms and half the caffeine.

Hurray for this beautiful day and hurray for cobra verde!

Jarrett began phase one with of installing a wall in the back kitchen + storage area over this past weekend..Will be finishing the other side this coming weekend. Then after that, we’ll be installing cute new tile flooring in our kitchen and gallery space. What a guy! Exciting stuff!

Wanna support a fantastic cause? Next month, Cristin will be volunteering for Habitat for Humanity’s Women Build. Along with a group of bada$$ women and led by our wonderful team captain Hannah Garrison, we are team So Mushroom To Grow and we’re gonna build a house!!!



In the meantime, we’re also raising money for the Women Build Fund with a goal of $2500. This fund helps provide families and female-led households with stability and security for future generations through home ownership.

Would love if you could do what you can to support our efforts in one or more of the following ways:

1. Support the women around you in general and let that love ripple out to all
2. Donate what you can on our fundraising page at the link in our bio
3. Like and/or share this post
