⚠️ WARNING: LONG POST ‼️
We had NO intentions on serving customers today. We’re still getting everything ready for our grand opening & waiting on our ice machine. But last night, we received a call from someone who loves loaded teas and usually travels all the way to Belle Chasse to get them!
We explained that we weren’t quite ready yet. She understood & did us a solid by telling her friends & coworkers that Loaded Teas DTR is coming REAL soon! Then this morning, we got a call from a business owner who wanted to place an order. We explained we were ready except the ice… and she said, “That’s okay, we have ice!” 😂
So I said, you know what… why not?! Let’s do it! I agreed to deliver them. The menu was ready, teas were ready, I was all set when, of course, I couldn’t find my keys. 🤦🏻♀️ After finding them, I discovered that my fob battery was dead! My ‘26 is stranded, Lyft finally found a driver and helped me deliver the very first ✨ Loaded Teas DTR order! 😂🎉
Definitely NOT how we expected our first order to go, but honestly, we wouldn’t have it any other way! The support and excitement already mean so much to us.
✨A HUGE thank you to Ava and Pam 🤗 over at Dad’s in Empire for supporting us and being part of our very first order! 💕🧋
With all of that being said… our official Grand Opening will be Monday! 🎉 Feel free to call or text your orders whenever you’re ready, and we can coordinate delivery for next week! We are so excited, so grateful, and we can’t wait to serve y’all! 💕
