The best adult drinks to get you through the end of winter

You know what would make this freezing cold weather we've been experiencing in New Jersey a lot more bearable? A nice warm drink.

What would make that nice warm drink even better would be if it were an adult beverage. There's nothing like a nice warm adult beverage as you warm yourself by a fire, or maybe one in a flask while you're outside at a game or on the slope.

But what are the great winter adult beverages?

Here are some drinks from my listeners and Facebook following you may not have tried that will warm your inners when it's cold outside:

Best coffee shops & cafes near NJ beaches

When it comes to food, New Jersey is known for many things such as pizza and pork roll. Don't count us out when it comes to coffee.

With all the hustle and bustle involved in the average New Jersey resident's day, coffee is essential. It doesn't matter whether you're living in the cities of North Jersey or the vacation spots at the shore.

In fact, as the former owner of two Jersey shore coffee houses, Coffee Dot Comedy in Sea Isle City and the Daily Grind in Ocean Grove, I know firsthand how much people at the Jersey shore love their coffee.

With respect to that, I asked my social media following where the best coffee houses at the Jersey Shore were, especially since my two places no longer exist.

Below is what they came up with. (And see this other article for their coffee shop and cafe recommendations for Central Jersey.)
