Just-a-Bite: Problem solving in adversity How Hernando County Schools Made Coffee Reimbursable!
Over the summer, we tested a few recipes and found one that worked! We made sure that each 12oz cup contained 8oz milk (M&B), ½ cup fruit (Juice Alive Mocha) and a 6 pack of donuts (Super Bakery). Along with other school districts nationwide, we were faced with product shortages, but these items came in strong for us. Once school got rolling, we decided to launch our 180 Café coffee and donut combo to each of our high schools. Since unveiling a few weeks ago, this reimbursable item has been a solid hit with the students! We offer one hot grab and go reimbursable combo along with the coffee and donut combo daily to our high schoolers and the kids are loving the cold choice by a longshot! One high school prepped 30 on day one (they were unsure of how the kids would take it) which was increased to 172 by the third day! Our next project coming soon… is a reimbursable hot cocoa combo!

Rather than local coffee and donut shops enticing our customers with scrumptious coffee drinks of frothy goodness, why not tempt these students to our own high school cafes by offering a reimbursable competitive taste of sweet java? We realized that enrollment was going to be down compared to years passed due to the new COVID options of e-school and distance learning. So, we pondered how we could capture the brick and mortar students that were in attendance. After realizing that grab and go was the only way we were allowed to serve our students this year, we quickly reassessed our circumstances. We decided to capitalize on the situation at hand and figure out “Plan F,” at that point! Knowing that we needed to maintain or try to increase participation, we were well aware of the coffee and donut trend. We decided to figure out a way to make a coffee combo recipe that was reimbursable.
