Rain, rain, go away, come again another day.⁣
⁣
It’s been raining so much these past couple weeks, which has been INSANE, but a lil rain never stops us from having fun and serving you with a smile.⁣
⁣
On those days, especially when it’s cloudy, the rain might put a damper on your plans. ⁣
⁣
But there’s a trick you can do to deceive the weather. A trick as old as time, which allows people to change the course of the clouds with a single sip (don’t quote us on this, we’re just the messenger).⁣
⁣
We’ve been trusted with this hidden gem, and now we give to you. A mystical drink called the:⁣
⁣
Cloudy Daze Lotus⁣
⁣
It’s been said to be a berry and citrus concoction of shimmering energy that’ll make all the clouds disappear. ⁣
⁣
We have yet to see this happen, so it’s up to you fellow ducks to test this theory.⁣
⁣
Rain or shine we will always be here, so stop on by and give it a try. 🤩☔️ ...

🎶 You spin me right round, baby, right round
Like a record, baby right round, round, round 🎶 ...

DOG PILEEEEE.

We love little moments like these where we get to share fun experiences with each other.

We have a team with so many cool people, and being able to laugh and enjoy life together is the best part.

Kato, Juju, Sasha, and Frankie sure know how to have a good time as they share smiles and laughs together.

What a goofy lil group.

A lil fun in the sun with the people you love is sometimes all you need. Whether that’s going to the beach, walking in the park, or stopping by to get a coffee. We love to see it and we love to hear about it.

Hopefully summer has been fulfilling for ya’ll as it has been for us.

You’re cool. Let’s make today a great day! ...

You know how I’ve been tossing around like a rotisserie chicken every night? Well, I decided to stage “Operation Sleep”—fresh sheets that smelled like a hotel I can’t afford and those ridiculous rain sounds that make the bedroom sound like a leaky greenhouse.⁣
⁣
I was just drifting off when my subconscious decided to serve me the most peculiar drink advertisement. Picture this: a drink that looked like a sunset had a baby with a unicorn. Orange juice on top melting into this shimmery purple situation that somehow managed to be both sweet and tart, like indecisive candy.⁣
⁣
I woke up completely rested for the first time in months, but obsessed with this beverage phantom. You know how sometimes you can’t remember someone’s name but you know it starts with a ‘J’? This was like that, but with a drink that may or may not exist.⁣
⁣
I spent the morning muttering “orange… purple… coffee place…” until the irony smacked me like a small, caffeinated epiphany: I’d literally dreamed about a drink called DREAM. That’s what they call it at my favorite coffee shop where the baristas often remember my name and somehow make even their most ridiculous concoctions taste like liquid happiness.⁣
⁣
Apparently my subconscious has excellent taste in beverages. Either that or I’m developing psychic powers limited exclusively to the White Duck secret menu.⁣
⁣
I’m heading there now to try this “Dream,” and honestly, after my brain went to all the trouble of giving me a full-color advertisement while I slept, it better be as magical as promised. I think it will be. ...

So maybe your yesterday was bonkers. Like, the kind of day where you wake up today and you’re going “wait, what even happened?” but you know it was epic.

The only thing you definitely remember? You forgot to eat. Classic move. Now your stomach is basically staging a revolt and you need food ASAP.

Thank the heavens for Liv though - she’s basically a mind reader at this point. She just grins at you with that “I got you” look and slides over a Buffalo Chicken Croissant like she’s solving world hunger.

Honestly? That sounds perfect right now.

And if you’re not feeling the buffalo vibe, we’ve got Ham & Cheese, Turkey Bacon Ranch, Tomato Pesto… or even a Blackberry Croissant if you’re leaning more toward the sweet side of life.

Basically, whatever your post-shenanigans soul is craving, we’ve got something that’ll hit just right.

So what do you say? Ready to fuel up?​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ ...

‘Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile ~ 🎇

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY EVERYONE!

Neesa and Conner are sparked full od energy and want to remind you that WE ARE OPEN EVERY HOLIDAY, INCLUDING THIS ONE.

Today from 6 AM - 6 PM you’ll find us at each stand slinging drinks, so come by and say hi!

Have fun and be safe tonight ya’ll! ...

“What makes your sugar-free syrup... sugar free?”

What a great question!

Our sugar-free syrups are primarily sweetened with Sucralose. (Note: a previous version of this post said stevia leaf extract, monk fruit, and erythritol, which is incorrect - that’s a separate product we’re looking at!) That give the syrups that lil bit of sweetness we all enjoy - without the added sugar found in standard syrups (which we also have). We stock over 20 sugar free flavors! Check whiteduck.es/menu for the full list.

Anddddd we also have Sweet ‘N Low, Splenda, Equal, and Stevia available to add into any drink. THAT’S PRETTY SWEET! (no sugar added hehe)

Charlotte has two fantastic recommendations if you`re feeling a sugar-free treat:

(Left) Green Tea with Sugar-Free Strawberry, SF Mango, and SF Peach.

(Right) Drip Coffee with Sugar-Free Brown Sugar Cinnamon, SF White Chocolate, and SF S’mores.

Ahhhhh, delicious.

KEEP IT UP DUCKS! ...

PSA: WE’RE OPEN 6AM TO 6PM JULY 4TH 🔥

It’s that time of year again - where fireworks color the sky and hot dogs are smoking on the grill.

Ahhhh, that sounds nice.

But if you’re gonna BBQ or feast, you’ve gotta caffeinate. May we suggest a perfect compliment to your dining: the Bomb Pop Lotus.

A festive red, white, and blue layered beverage that resembles the popsicle you chowed down on during hot summer days like today.

One more reminder: we are open on Friday the 4th of July from 6 AM - 6 PM! Opening a lil later, closing a lil earlier! 🙂

Hopefully we’ll see you there!

STAY COOL FRIENDS! ...

This drink is actually really good – it’s got this perfect fruity taste that just hits different. Not sure how else to describe it except that.. it makes you feel happy?!⁣
⁣
This divine drink features of blend of fruity and refreshing flavors that’ll keep you smiling with every sip.⁣

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH 🌈 ...

I came here for lovee…. 🎵

Just kidding. Brian and the team came here for the Paradise Lotus; which is the perfect drink for summer, and a Fiji getaway to find love. 🌴

Oh what we’d do to be relaxing in a beachfront villa, drinking a Paradise Lotus, and testing some connections!

The Paradise Lotus is “coupled up” with some berries and tropical flavors, and a touch of orange juice.

But if you’ve learned one thing from Love Island, never put all of your eggs in one basket. 🧺

Don’t get closed off just yet… keep exploring other (Lotus) options. ...

THREE CHEERS FOR SATURDAY (from the Little Ducks)⁣
⁣
It’s the weekend, please be good. Drive safe, and drive with people who drive safe…⁣
⁣
So started a benediction of sorts high school teacher Mr P spoke to his students every Friday for decades in Marysville, WA, birthplace of the idea of White Duck Espresso.⁣
⁣
It gives a person pause, to sit and think of the difference that extra ounce of care towards a person makes. A mix of reliability with a smattering of care. ⁣
⁣
Give us spontaneity, heck yeah. We love change, and adventure. But work within that to have a through line of home (the idea, not necessarily the place), of intention and integrity. Of the extra bit of time it takes to see each other.⁣
⁣
It’s important. ...

So close yet so far. ⁣
⁣
Something so delicious, just out of reach. You’re almost there…just a bit farther…⁣
⁣
HUZZAH! Got it. The treat you’ve been searching for: the Orange Creamsicle. 🍊 (Great as a Shake - excellent as a Lotus too!)⁣
⁣
Looks like you secured it before Jess, Frankie, and Riley could. An intense moment that must have been.⁣
⁣
But you won fair and square. The battle is over. (Also don’t worry we can just make another, heh).⁣
⁣
Safe travels friends! ...

You know what time it is: time for another question. 🤩⁣
⁣
“What is the best secret menu item?”🧐⁣
⁣
Unfortunately for you, oh question asker, this is an impossible question, kinda like “what is the largest real number?” Anyway - there’s no accounting for taste. ⁣
⁣
So instead, we’ll give you two that are tried and true faves for a couple of our team members. For Lotus, Frankie is happily sipping on a Pink Starburst. ⁣
⁣
It’s a fruity and creamy concoction that tastes exactly like the candy you know and love. Usually made with coconut milk, but can be substituted with cream if that’s your vibe.⁣
⁣
Then we traverse to the land of Espresso, where Paige beckons you over with the Reese’s Mocha. ⁣
⁣
A delightful mix of chocolate and peanut butter goodness that’ll take you to dessert heaven (if there is one - which probably). ⁣
⁣
Two incredible choices. WOW. ⁣
⁣
If you needed any reassurance, just look at Liv. She’s giving her silent approval from afar. She can be trusted. ⁣
⁣
Have a great day y’all! ...

Duck. Duck. DÉA.

(reminder: free stickers while they last AT THE VAN DYKE LOCATION ONLY TODAY to celebrate two years of being open there!) ...

HAPPY 2 YEAR ANNIVERSARY VAN DUCK! (Read to the end for free stuff.)

Another year in the bag, and it’s been a wild one. Not a day went by where smiles and laughs weren’t shared, and we’re so grateful for YOU coming by. It has been a real honor to get to know y’all for another year. We love every single one of you.

ALSO, there’s one more thing for us to celebrate:

You might recognize this smile, and you may have seen her running around - MUNIRAH IS BACK!

We are so happy to have Munirah back at Van Duck with her newly arrived little one thriving at home.
She is now a mama duck to TWO little ducklings. How exciting!

AND ONE MORE THING.

To celebrate Van Duck’s two year anniversary, we are giving out exclusive holographic stickers (***from the Van Duck stand only***) to celebrate all day Tuesday (until we run out). Come on by and pick yourself up one on Tuesday the 24th at the Van Duck stand!

THANK YOU so much for an amazing two years, and cheers to many more.

HAPPY 2 YEARS VAN DUCK! ...

You wake up suddenly. A craving hits you like a bus, strong enough that it woke you from your mid-afternoon slumber. Your stomach rumbles louder with each passing second.⁣
⁣
You stumble out of bed, reaching for your car keys. The time is now. You must go. ⁣
⁣
The only thing on your mind is: a cookies and cream inspired sweet treat. Yes… that’s it. That’s exactly what you need. ⁣
⁣
You roll to White Duck and Kate and Leah have you covered: the perfect pairing of Cookies and Cream hot fresh mini donuts with a Cookies and Cream Shake is the pairing you need. (Toss Espresso in that Shake or not - that’s your call.)⁣
⁣
So good.⁣
⁣
LET’S MAKE THIS SUNDAY A GREAT DAY ...

“Any plans on releasing new flavors, I would love a cotton candy flavor.” - a question that came in 🤩⁣
⁣
Boy are you in luck - we have exactly what you’re looking for! ⁣
⁣
The Little Ducks would like to present to you: the Cotton Candy Lotus. ⁣
⁣
A mix of sweet and fruity flavors topped with a layer of coconut milk to give that silky cloud like texture we all know and love. ⁣
⁣
Caffeine paired with flavors of the sweet confectionery sugary treat you love… all in one sip. Ahhhh… what a delight. ⁣
⁣
FLY HIGH FELLOW DUCKS - YOU ARE COOL! 🍬☁️ ...
