Are you looking for a hot latte or cappuccino? You can get traditional vanilla, mocha, or caramel latte at Pallate Cafe on Broadway in Saratoga. You can even get a regular cup of coffee or tea and sit and relax with friends.
One place you might be surprised to grab a warm drink, the Saratoga Winery. The Saratoga Winery & Tasting Room is known for its selection of handcrafted wines, but did you know about their drink specials? Try a Maple Hot Toddy or Boozy Hot Chocolate; both of those will keep you warm.
