Best Iced Coffee Library of Congress
311 E. Congress St. STAFF PICK: While there are still some areas of the country
where iced coffee remains a misunderstood oddity, we caffeine-ravaged
dwellers of the parched pueblo know that a steaming cup of coffee
just doesn't fly in 100-plus degrees. Iced coffee has become a
refined art. No longer content to swallow watered-down brew, those
in need of real iced coffee know to go to the Library of Congress,
in the Hotel Congress downtown. Their iced coffee is delicious,
refreshing and after a few sips you'll be moving faster than e-mail
over this cyber-café's T-1 connection. When it comes to
the cold-brewed brew, they don't screw around. They use their
own secret blend of beans to produce the strongest, smoothest
blend in the city. As one of the cybar's knowledgeable staffers
noted, "You get double the kick with half the burn."
