Dessert drinks and boozy brunch served up at hot franchise spot Famous Toastery

Desserts are no longer the after thought of a meal, but have a rightful place on the menu as customers continue to indulge while dining out.

Famous Toastery, a North Carolina-based brunch and breakfast franchise, has capitalized on sweet drinks and dessert cocktails as the brand continues to grow. Recently franchised, Famous Toastery (formerly known as Toast Cafe), is updating its menu to include shakes based on children's cereals like Cap'n Crunch, Fruit Loops and Lucky Charms. These cereals are then blended with ice cream and milk - and to make brunch more fun - with spiced rums and tequilas.

“We wanted to do more creative dessert-based cocktails that would complement breakfast,” Robert Maynard, co-founder of Famous Toastery said. “At a breakfast brunch place, guests may not always think of beer or wine or a cocktail. We came up with a menu to introduce other drinks they could have.”
