7 Simple Fall Drinks to Add to Your Concession Stand Menu
Embrace the Season with These Fall Drink Recipes
Fall is the time for pumpkins, sweaters, and warm drinks! It’s easy to add cocoa, coffee, and cider drinks to your concessions menu. If you make snow cones, popcorn, and fudge, you probably already have most of the ingredients you’ll need to concoct tasty treats for your customers.
The main idea behind these beverages is to create a syrup you can then use to flavor the main ingredient, whether coffee, hot chocolate, or cider. If your drinks become popular, you may want to consider purchasing bottles with pumps for storage and easy access when serving.
It’s always more profitable if you can use concession supplies for multiple purposes, and these fall drink recipes let you do just that! Check out these recipes and decide which will be the simplest to add to your lineup this fall.
