Summer is heating up fast. Lucky for us, popsicle artisan King of Pops has joined up with Jittery Joe’s and are now selling their yummy handmade icy delights in our Athens stores!
King of Pops features handmade, all-natural popsicles of myriad flavor varieties like the Arnold Palmer (sweet tea and lemonade), Chocolate Sea Salt (dark chocolate with a hint of sea salt), Coconut Lemongrass, Raspberry Lime, Strawberry Lemonade, and about a hundred more seasonal flavors!
Popsicles are available at all Jittery Joe’s Athens locations. So come by and cool down with these delicious icy treats.
Good news for coffee lovers! A recent study done by National Institutes of Health and AARP has found a positive correlation between coffee drinking and life expectancy. Take a minute and read the full article.
Craving something cold instead of your normal, hot cup of joe? Try Jittery Joe’s new cold brewed coffee (also known as a Toddy)! This method of brewing produces a rich, velvety texture and an extra caffeine boost while keeping the same gourmet flavor of our micro-roasted beans!
A little about cold brewed coffee: The process of brewing coffee directly onto ice locks in flavors and aromatics. Clean, fresh, sweet, and aromatic, iced coffee is made by cooling the coffee immediately, avoiding oxidized (or acidic) flavors that other brewing methods can produce.
So the next time you’re in need of a pick-me-up, come by Jittery Joe’s and grab an ice-cold Toddy. You’ll be asking the question, “Is it cold in here?”

March 23 – 25 – Jittery Joe’s hosted the 2012 edition of the South East Roasters’ Conference. This annual gathering of 25-30 regional roasters always gives us an opportunity to catch up with other roasters and learn more about our craft. The conference weekend included fun and exciting events including roasting seminars, varietal cuppings, coffee buying seminars, a roasting challenge and of course some social gatherings. We had a great time and would like to thank everyone that came to Athens to take part and to all those that helped make the event a success. See you next year.

Jittery Joe’s was recently hailed as one of the “best places for sipping” in Athens by Taste of the South Magazine. Joe’s was featured alongside the likes of country-chic eatery White Tiger Gourmet, classic southern kitchen Peaches Fine Foods and, of course, Hendershot’s Coffee Bar, started by the very man behind the Jittery Joe’s tasting room, Seth Hendershot.
We are proud to be a part of such an eclectic and amazing group of local flavor in one of the coolest cities in the nation. A big thanks to our patrons for their continued support. We’ll keep the coffee comin!
