It is a fermented drink made from the finest quality teas. It tastes delicious and we rotate flavors regularly. It's available on draft and tastes great served in a frosty mug. Currently we are serving the Superberry and Clear Mind. Come in and try a complimentary sample today!<br /><br />Kombucha may be an acquired taste, but once you feel the effects you'll see why it's worth it. At Southeast Grind our goal is to served food and beverages that make your belly happy and Kombucha does just the trick. With all those live cultures floating around this elixir will surely bring balance and vitality to your body, mind and soul. Kombucha is a drink that's been enjoyed for hundreds of years the world over and has been a beneficial tonic for healthy digestion, normalizing your ph levels, and a good appetite suppressant.<br /><br />We choose to go with Brew Dr. Kombucha from <a href="http://www.townshendstea.com">Townshend's Tea </a>in our effort to stay local. Townshend's Tea Shop on Alberta is a great little tea house with hundreds of loose leaf teas available. The great part about Brew Dr. is that they start with the finest quality teas so the overall taste and quality is better than any that we've ever tried. Plus we just love to support other local businesses:)<br /><br />Since the Kombucha is on draft we'll rotate through flavors but the best reccomendation for someone who hasn't tried Kombucha before is the Superberry. It's a nice flavorful combination of Elderberry, Hibiscus, Rose Hips and Black Currant. Rich in antioxidants and vitamin C, we'll probably always have this one available. Also currently on draft is Clear Mind. This one's good for all you students trying to stay alert to get that 10 page paper done by 8 am. Full of Ginkgo, Rosemary and Sage this one is great for concentration, memory and circulation.<br /><br />16 oz frosty mugs are $4.00SouthEast Grindhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17085307216922228240noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2449861599499202948.post-68168679276122391222009-11-29T04:13:00.000-08:002009-11-29T04:23:54.852-08:00The Love of Coffee and Community GivingHow great is this- there is now a training program for homeless youth and teaches the art and science of becoming a barista.

Starting at 7pm at the shop, 1223 SE Powell Blvd, we will have drinks, snacks, art and music for your enjoyment. The artist that we will be featuring is the girlfriend of our first regular, John. Andrea, the artist, has a website portfolio where you can check out her work, and it's very easy to browse. It's <a href="http://www.magicpugpictures.com/">http://www.magicpugpictures.com/</a>. John and Andrea have a cute little pug that loves baseball and going to Bark in the Park Days at PGE Park. Here's a little blurb about Andrea:</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>"I grew up in Bakersfield, California, and graduated fifth in my class of five-hundred from Bakersfield High school in 2003. I received the Bank of America award for promising artistic performance, after participating in the advanced placement art and animation program.<br />I started college at the University of California, Santa Barbara as a double major, art studio and art history, but was not blown away by the studio program, so I just kept the art history major. I graduated in 2007 with a bachelors degree in art history in the top five of my major, and received the thesis paper award for that year, earning a distinction in the major.<br />I just moved to Portland this year, and love love love it! My next adventure I think will be going to tattoo school- I'm so excited!<br />Other things I love... playing the piano, dogs with squishy faces, anything Disney, cheese, comic books, lord of the rings, nerdy stuff, coffee, tee-shirts, good beer, changing my hair color, cooking, movies, decorating, painting and drawing, and lots of other stuff too:)"</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>If you haven't had a chance to stop by the shop yet and seen how the place has evolved, now is a great time!</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Hearts,</div><br /><div>Southeast Grind</div>SouthEast Grindhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17085307216922228240noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2449861599499202948.post-66975550756711078052009-05-07T10:37:00.000-07:002009-05-07T10:50:50.111-07:00Why choose local coffee roasters?<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBnS5KsmQuLPYvDHGEMWbcrVC9JrDcPDAQPifpr54ZohR7X0jsdBvVYomQgd5HvcKhqI-g1_s4jg7tdGnRHUWoFrBCREBuOUr6vgD4nU1QytaoW21KRLnKynqcv3pRW3cF-zxGhvzUS6cr/s1600-h/southeastgrind-final-bw.png"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5333140929650861106" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 247px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBnS5KsmQuLPYvDHGEMWbcrVC9JrDcPDAQPifpr54ZohR7X0jsdBvVYomQgd5HvcKhqI-g1_s4jg7tdGnRHUWoFrBCREBuOUr6vgD4nU1QytaoW21KRLnKynqcv3pRW3cF-zxGhvzUS6cr/s320/southeastgrind-final-bw.png" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Coffee tastes the best when it is fresh roasted and made with love. It tastes even better when it is creating better working conditions for the farmers that work so hard to make it available to us. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>We know that there are many great local roasters here in Portland (we're so lucky here). Even after considering and tasting most of them, Paul and I both came to the conclusion that even if we served another great local roaster we would still seek out a cup of Stumptown's Hairbender blend now and again. After realizing this, it makes the most sense to choose OUR favorite coffee to serve at Southeast Grind. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>It's not just the flavor though; we choose to serve Stumptown Coffee for more reasons than just the fabulous taste. The way that they handle thier relationships with the coffee bean growers is shaking up the coffee industry in stellar, progressive ways. Not only do they buy beans at higher prices than 'Fair Trade' but they work directly with the growers to insure that working conditions are suitable and healthy. One Portland independent business working with independant growers all over the world. It's this direct relationship and keeping things transparent that we like as well. Get the story straight from the horse's mouth here:</div><br /><div><a href="http://www.stumptowncoffee.com/">http://www.stumptowncoffee.com/</a></div><br /><div></div><br /><div>This is also the reason that we choose as many small, independant business as we can when selecting our vendors. Small business has not got the love that it has deserved lately and we like to support and promote the ones that are doing great!</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Now it's your turn. Come down and support your local coffee shop, Southeast Grind!</div>SouthEast Grindhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17085307216922228240noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2449861599499202948.post-90419238115474382372009-05-06T07:07:00.000-07:002009-05-06T07:14:53.867-07:00Back to the GrindI am finding that people already call us 'the grind'. It's cute to hear over the phone when people say, 'wanna meet up at the grind later?'<br /><br />Thank you so much to all the people that came and helped us do the quick change over. At one point there were about 20+ people working, cleaning, organizing, painting and just being plain awesome. We appreciate your help more than you can imagine!<br /><br />Sarah, our logo artist, came down and painted the windows to draw in some of the Powell traffic. I saw a video that she posted somewhere that I'll try to find and post up here as well.<br /><br />If you haven't been into the shop yet, it's time. We are in full operation. All of the baristas are super friendly and knowledgable about the menu. I think that we are all having a blast, but the most important part is that the customers are enjoying their experience. So far the Hemp Hazelnut Latte and the Marionberry/Blackberry Smoothies are the biggest hits and they definately are yummy!<br /><br />We are still in the creation process, so if you have requests or suggestions, send them my way.<br /><br />Did you check out the website yet?
