Happy National Donut Day, Royals. 🍩☕
Let us talk about a match made in heaven: a great donut and an exceptional cup of coffee. Two things that have always belonged together, and today we are celebrating both.
But first, a tribute to the most legendary donut in Colorado.
At 14,115 feet above sea level, the Summit Visitor Center on Pikes Peak makes the ONLY donuts in the world crafted at that altitude. Scientifically designed for thin mountain air, made on a 1,500-pound machine that the entire Summit building was built around. The catch? You have to eat them at the top or they deflate the moment you come back down.
That is dedication to the craft. And we respect it deeply. 🏔️
So here is the National Donut Day plan: hit the summit, honor the donut, take in those Pikes Peak views, and then come back down to 3230 Centennial Blvd and let us pour you something exceptional to finish your day right.
Donuts up there. Coffee down here. A perfect Colorado day.
