Sip & Snip: The Shak’s Got Java

Sizzor Shak is proud to announce the newest addition to their wide variety of services: ORGANIC GOURMET COFFEE! They call it Java Shak! And it couldn’t come at a better time with winter approaching. Anyone who talked about this project to owner, Scott Weber, has been more than likely chomping at the bean to get this machine up & running.

Weber did his homework, sampling coffee after coffee to bring you the best cup on the market right here to Sizzor Shak Salon & Color Spa in Collinsville, IL! “Our machine grinds up the freshly roasted beans for each individual cup purchased,” says Weber, “ensuring that you get the best quality, bold flavor with every sip!”

In fact, the Shak Girls now describe the coffee they’ve kept in their cabinets at home as “tasting like dirt,” compared to the organic gourmet Java Shak coffee. “You need to experience it for yourself to understand!” Java Shak coffee is organic, low-acidic, very aromatic, & so smooth.

Head into “The Shak” today to get a cup of your own! Regular, Light, or Decaf (Swiss Water Processed) is only $1.25 for a 12oz cup. They also have Cappuccino, Cafe Mocha, Hot Chocolate, & French Vanilla for $1.75 for a 12oz cup.

If that’s just not enough for you, you can purchase 12oz airtight sealed bags of whole bean, ground, or even flavored Java Shak cofee right inside Sizzor Shak. You can also visit JavaShak.com to purchase the bags of coffee online & have it shipped to you or someone else as a gift.

So next time you’re in Collinsville, swing by Sizzor Shak Salon & Spa, relax at their bistro tables, access their free Wifi, & sip on a cup of joe!

Great Ideas Start With Your First Sip of Coffee

Getting up in the morning, starting the coffeemaker, making kids lunches, feeding the two noisy cats and the one whining dog – finally, the coffee was ready to drink and it tasted terrible. But of course I drank it. Caffeine is as necessary to me as my contact lenses – I simply can’t see without it.

Fortunately for me, I was heading into work at Sizzor Shak, so I knew I would soon encounter our new Java Shak line. It is simply incredible… so smooth and rich with a great aroma. I won’t share the brand I have in my cabinets at home, but it is soon to be replaced with the shiny gold bags of 100% Arabica coffee beans. I guess this is one time it’s good to take my work home with me!
