Drift, Issue 14 – Miami
Release date: January 31, 2025
Coffee sits in the background of some of the most important moments in our lives: the first time we told new friends we’d like to get to know them better, a second date, a business meeting, a passion project completed, a time we caught up with long-lost loved ones after years apart. More than anything else, coffee is tied to a sense of place and a sense of community.
Drift is about coffee, the people who drink it, and the cities they inhabit. Our collection of writers and photographers, alongside coffee shop owners, baristas, streetcart vendors, and patrons, capture a glimpse of what it’s like to drink coffee in a city at the time the magazine is printed. Each issue highlights a different city.
It’s about wandering the streets aimlessly, cup of coffee in hand, and learning more about what a place has to offer, whether you’ve been there for 25 minutes or 25 years. Coffee helps us chart the geography of our cities. It’s about seeing those cities with fresh eyes, as visitors or long-time residents, and trying to understand what makes them tick.
In this issue:
With its colorful confluence of cultures, the city has become a unique meeting place for artists, musicians, tourists, and coffee roasters—and more recently, even professional athletes. In this issue, we introduce you to their stories. In doing so, you’ll discover that, from the sweet cafecitos of Little Havana to the Third Wave roasts in the city’s artsy Wynwood district, the Magic City offers a brew for everyone.
Drift Volume 14; From the neon excitement of South Beach to the soulful streets of Little Havana and luxury boutiques of the Design District, Miami offers one of the most exciting collections of coffee communities in America. In this issue, we bring you stories from the many neighborhoods of Vice City to show how coffee has not only become an expression of its diversity, but a way of life.
Drift Volume 14 includes:
- Celebrated for its Art Deco heyday, Miami’s iconic façades and structures from the past now house some of the city’s best coffee shops.
- From the quick-serve ventanitas–little walk-up windows selling cafecitos–to the famous Cubano sandwiches, learn about how Miami’s Cuban heritage is deeply woven into the city’s culture.
- A colorful personal narrative about the fast and carefree life of a young “gringa” among the “conchs” in Key West, full of love, adventure, and coffee.
- From courtside at the Miami Open to curbside all around town, an NBA player is taking his coffee passion project public.
