Please, when my time comes, bury me among the blooms. I love flowers. I love floral flavors, floral scents, floral décor—all of it. But I especially enjoy a nice floral-flavored latte, cocktail or confection in the spring, and I think you’ll enjoy these local renditions, too.
Eurasia Coffee’s Bouquet Latte
445 E. Commercial St., Springfield
A latte made with rosewater and simple syrup and topped with dried flowers from Ozark Mountain Flower Truck. Local, delicious and perfectly Instagrammable.
Prairie Pie’s Hibiscus Lemon Pies
307 Jefferson Ave., Springfield
As compared to the more perfum-y rose and lavender, hibiscus is a floral that packs a sweet and sour punch, and the lemon just accentuates it all.
Civil Kitchen’s Lavender 75
107 Park Central Square, Springfield
If you want to feel like a Parisian, go sip on this French 75 variation at the Civil Kitchen patio. People watching strongly recommended.
European Café’s Rose and Lavender Macrons
207 Park Central East, Springfield
Another Parisian moment for you: soft, pillowy, chewy, gooey macron sandwiches stuffed full of all the blooming flavors you can find.
