COLORADO SPRINGS — The cold weather doesn't mean you can't enjoy yourself. Pikes Peak Lemonade in Downtown Colorado Springs is known for its specialty squeeze, but in this weather, the menu shifts to offering hot cocoa.
The drink shop has a hot chocolate bar set up and ready to go. It includes an assortment of goodies and flavors meant to make this cold weather more enjoyable.
"People usually do either classic cocoa or peppermint," said Michael Mauk with Pikes Peak Lemonade. "If I'm making recommendations for them and they're feeling adventurous, they really like to do lavender white cocoa."
Pikes Peak Lemonade owners say that while Thursday was a bit slow, they often get customers into their store seeking a little warmth after they've visited Skate in the Park across the street at Acacia Park.
