Iced Coffee Crawl

If you like iced coffee, Rhode Island Food Fights has a challenge for you. Twenty-three coffee vendors have teamed up to determine who makes the Ocean State’s best iced brew. To get in on the action, buy a passport for $15. From now until August 31, visit each of the participating vendors and show your passport for a free iced coffee.

If you live and/or work in Providence and like iced coffee, this is a no-brainer as most coffee shops are located in the city. For the rest of us, it’s still a great deal since a decent iced coffee will set you back around $3. Plus, who doesn’t love the challenge of finding the best of anything? Why not iced coffee?
