We’re so excited to introduce our new vendor partner Heady Cup Coffee Roasters located in McHenry, IL.

is a small batch specialty coffee roaster. No mids or gimmicks. Straight up dank coffee for the coffee connoisseur. Heady is all about the craft. Specialty coffee roasting without compromise.

Founders Michael Kivland and Kevin Foglesong have years of experience in specialty coffee roasting with a commitment to sustainability, traceability, and social responsibility through their custom blends and single-origin offerings.

Lemon Heady: Coffee meets citrus. Spark meets chill. ☕️ 🍋

They brewed their signature cold brew to a slightly lighter strength—still full of body, but less bark. We added a house lemonade base to provide balance and sweetness. Shake it lightly to bring the whole thing to life. The result? A cold brew shandy that walks this tightrope between zingy lemonade and smooth, cold-brewed coffee. It’s like your favorite iced tea and favorite coffee got together and decided to chill.
