Car’s packed. Coffee shop’s empty. Time to turn this room into something spooky.

We’re setting up at Spooktacular Studios for opening night Friday the 25th. Come see what we’ve been brewing—and grab a coffee, tea, dirty soda, or another spooky drink while you’re there.

WE’RE STOCKED AND READY FOR OPENING NIGHT.

The soda is loaded. The coffee is freshly roasted. The espresso is ready to pull. And Potions & Brews is gearing up for Opening Night at Spooktacular Studios this Friday, September 25th at 7 PM!

We’ve been stocking, prepping, brewing, and getting everything ready, and now there’s only one thing left to do:

🍂 WELCOME TO FALL! 🍂

Fall drinks are officially here, and we’re kicking things off with the Krispy Caramel Crunch Chai Latte.

Our cozy chai latte is topped with homemade marshmallow sweet cream and finished with a drizzle of our NEW housemade caramel sauce.

Creamy. Spiced. Caramelly. And exactly what the first taste of fall should be.

Come try it TODAY at the Joplin Empire Market!
📍 Empire Market
⏰ 10 AM–2 PM

Come see us, grab a Krispy Caramel Crunch, and welcome fall the right way. 🍂🤎

Looks like we’ve been brewing a little something for the Joplin Public Library…

This Friday, the Teen Boba Bar is back, and Potions & Brews is supplying the syrups!

We put together a few flavors specifically for this one, and I’m keeping those under wraps for now. You’ll have to stop by and see what we sent over.

Grades 6–12 can stop in Friday from 4:30–5:30 for a free drink, some crafts, and a place to hang out.

I absolutely love getting to do things like this with the library

Now the real question: what flavor are you hoping we sent?

Pop in to our Teen Boba Bar this Friday afternoon for a free drink. We're so excited to have some delicious options from Potions & Brews! Open to grades 6-12. ☺

ROYAL DISORDER — PART II

Because apparently 10 photos were not enough to contain the chaos. 😂

Royal Disorder Tattoo Expo was one incredible weekend.

We poured a ridiculous number of drinks, made new friends, met some incredibly talented people, saw some amazing art, made a new wholesale connection, acquired an adorable little crocheted potion bottle who has officially joined the Potions & Brews family, and somehow ended up with a dragon as our newest delivery system. 🐉🧪

But Part II is really about the people behind the weekend.

To everyone who stopped by the booth, grabbed a drink, picked up a bottle, came back for another round, sent someone our way, or just stopped to hang out with us — thank you. Getting to meet you, talk with you, and watch people genuinely enjoy what we’ve built is what makes these crazy weekends worth it.

And a very special thank you to my crew for putting up with three straight days of my shenanigans, questionable decisions, constant chaos, unreasonable demands, and general mistreatment. 😂 You jumped in wherever I needed you, kept things moving when we got slammed, and somehow continued speaking to me by the end of Sunday.

I could not have pulled this weekend off without you. I appreciate every one of you more than you know. 🖤

To our neighboring vendors, artists, organizers, new friends, and familiar faces — thank you for making us feel right at home. Royal Disorder was exhausting, chaotic, wonderfully weird, and exactly our kind of place.

We came home tired, grateful, full of stories, and already looking forward to the next one.

And fortunately, we won’t have to wonder if we’re coming back…

Potions & Brews is officially locked in for Royal Disorder 2027. 👑

Until next year, Royal Disorder. 🖤🧪☕️

P.S. Somehow the Potions Master spent THREE DAYS at a tattoo expo and came home without a new tattoo. I have no excuse. I accept full responsibility for this failure.

Three days at the Royal Disorder
Tattoo Expo, and somehow the Potions Master left without a new tattoo.

Not sure how I managed that one.

But what an absolutely incredible weekend for Potions & Brews.

We poured a LOT of drinks. We ran out of milk twice. Ran out of sweet cream. Went through gallons of water. Ran out of coffee and had to make an emergency restock. The espresso machine WORKED. The latte art… well, we’re still working on that part.

We brought the syrups, broke out the espresso bar, served up some ridiculous drinks, made some new friends, and even made a new wholesale connection.

And I got one of my favorite reviews we’ve ever received: a young lady wearing a Dunkin’ shirt tried our Pumpkin Spice Cookie Butter Espresso Latte and informed me that ours was better than Dunkin’. I will be accepting this as an official victory.

Another customer told me she plans to drive 45 minutes every Saturday to Empire Market just to get her drink. I offered to sell her the syrup so she could make it at home.

She essentially told me, absolutely not, I’ll see you Saturday.

Fair enough.

Most importantly, thank you to everyone who stopped by, tried something new, came back for another drink, grabbed a bottle, talked with us, helped us, or just made this weekend memorable.

And apparently we did something right, because our spot is already secured for Royal Disorder 2027.

Until then, you can find the Potions Master and all this nonsense every Saturday at Joplin Empire Market
Or at our Unique Boutiques Joplin location.
