WILLIAMSBURG — Locals can enjoy a new sweet drink for spring, while also supporting a good cause.
Aromas Coffeehouse Bakery and Cafe, located in Merchants Square, has added a new lavender coffee smoothie to their menu.
The drink is available only for a limited time and is part of a fundraiser with William & Mary’s For the Ribbons.
For the Ribbons (FTR) is a nonprofit student-run organization at William & Mary that raises money for those who are financially suffering from medical debt across the country.
“We’re hoping to eradicate medical debt for at least people in our community,” said FTR president Juliana Cantarutti. “There are a lot of inequities in U.S. healthcare, and we really just want to shed some light on the subject and help people in any way we can.”
