Aztec Made: Bold Brew Coffee
色情视频 students launch a new cold brew coffee aimed at active sports enthusiasts.
Doheny and Solomon have been working with 色情视频鈥檚 to refine their business and test their product. They roast and brew their product locally, something they had to learn when first starting out.
Brewing is now done at a local commercial kitchen space that rents to startup food and beverage companies looking to test recipes and make large batches of product.
鈥淲e have both always loved coffee, but we had to learn to brew to start the company,鈥� said Doheny. 鈥淲e used as many resources and sought out as much mentorship about brewing as we could.鈥�
Their tagline 鈥淏e Bold鈥� speaks directly to skaters, surfers and snowboarders who love to 鈥済et their adrenaline pumping鈥� but prefer to do without the chemicals and artificial flavors common in store-bought energy drinks.
Doheny and Solomon frequently head out to skate parks and popular surf spots for market research and say they鈥檝e received great feedback from their potential customers.
The pair recently placed third in the for ZIP Launchpad teams.
鈥淭he Zahn Challenge experience was incredibly unique and special because we had the opportunity to pitch to successful entrepreneurs just like we would for capital investment,鈥� said Doheny. 鈥淚t primes us to think in terms of value proposition not only for our end-consumer but also for our high-level investor, which is crucial.鈥�
Doheny said the cash prize offered to winners of the Zahn Challenge is going toward more brewing equipment, web development and business licenses.
Next up for Bold Brew: local distribution.
Bold Brew plans to sell their product on campus every Friday in East Commons beginning Feb. 3, thanks to an agreement with Aztec Shops.
