| - The family and I wound up in the Davidson area on an impromptu vacation when we left Florida ahead of Hurricane Irma's expected arrival. The friends we stayed with suggested, when they found out about my love of local coffee shops, that I check out Summit Coffee. I made sure to do just that.
On my first visit to Summit, yes I went twice during our four days there, I turned my back on my normal coffee drink. Instead I was intrigued by a special drink Summit was offering that mixed lemonade with coffee. It sound absolutely hideous but, like a rubbernecker or a train wreck, it sound so hideous that I just had to try it. It took a few sips before I realized just how terrible of a decision that was. This drink was not good. It wasn't the coffee's fault. It probably also wasn't the lemonade's fault. Those two drinks just shouldn't be partnered up. Like a terrible marriage, they do nothing but bring each other down.
I couldn't leave Davidson with that bad taste in my mouth. I mean the friends we stayed with said this was the best coffee they've ever had and I couldn't believe that their tastebuds would be so far off. So before heading out of town I drove back to Summit and took a coffee to go. This time I was not swayed by trainwrecks or out of the ordinary drinks, I went with my tried and true drink. The iced latte with vegan milk was absolutely on point. It wasn't overly saturated with sweetness, I could still get a sense of the great Summit coffee taste. I loved the taste. There wasn't the lingering bitterness in their coffee that I dislike about some of those chain coffee shops.
So, in short, go to Summit and get your drink of choice and you'll most likely be pleased. If you stray outside of that, watch out, you could find yourself face-to-face with something truly scary.
