5 Moments at the Bar that Make Us Love Summer (Despite Everything)

5 Momenti al Bar che ci Fanno Amare l’Estate (Nonostante Tutto)

Summer at the bar is not just heat, running after ice, and thirsty tourists: it’s also a season made of small daily joys that only those who live behind the counter can truly understand. Between a refreshing granita and a perfectly crafted shaken coffee, here are 5 moments that make us think: “Okay, after all, summer has its reasons.”

1. The first customer who orders the shaken coffee

That rhythmic sound of the shaker breaking the morning silence is the official signal that summer has begun. And if you want to do it right, our Coffee is the perfect choice: creamy, intense, zero hassle with last-minute preparations. Seeing the satisfied smile at the first sip? Always guaranteed.


2. The “loyal ones” who resist even on Ferragosto

When the city empties and the neighborhood looks like an abandoned set, they are there. The loyal customers who never give up: “Coffee and brioche, as always!”. Or “today a little treat, maybe a Cold Cream with Pausa Coffee?”. It’s in those moments that the bar becomes a small family oasis, fresh and delicious.


3. The art of surviving the wave of granitas and ice creams

“A Pausa Lemon Granita with cream but without sugar.” “A cold cream with pistachio but in a small glass.” Summer is also this: Olympic training for multitasking bartenders. However, with the Pausa Granitas ready to use, the mission is definitely simpler: guaranteed quality and happy customers in just a few seconds.

4. Slow breakfasts under the umbrella (or in the cool of the bar)

In summer, the rhythms change. Customers arrive less in a rush, some stop for a chat, to browse the newspaper, or simply to enjoy their cappuccino at a leisurely pace. Some are tempted by a delicious addition, perhaps a Cold Cream with tiramisu or salted caramel Pausa to complete breakfast with a fresh and creamy note. And you can finally dedicate yourself to the best latte art of the day.


5. The “summer aperitif” moment: sunset, spritz, and relaxation

When the heat finally eases and the counter fills with smiles, spritz, and snacks, the day takes on a different flavor. And between one spritz and another, a customer asks, “do you have something refreshing but non-alcoholic?”. Et voilà, with our Cold Creams with Pistachio or Coffee, the aperitif transforms into pure pleasure, even without alcohol.


Summer at the bar? It's a challenge... but also an opportunity to have fun!

Amid small stresses and great satisfactions, summer reminds us that the bar is much more than a place: it's a reference point, a refreshing break, a smile on a hot day. And with the right Pausa products in the fridge, the season becomes even lighter to manage.
