Usually, the most homespun Starbucks gets is the barista steaming your milk. But as of September, the international coffee chain got a local jolt when it added Boulder-based Justin’s Nut Butter to its lineup. Here in Denver, we already know and love the organic spreads, and I’m thrilled that Justin Gold’s butters are getting national play. Look for the maple-almond butter flavor in single-serving packets in Starbucks’ healthy-food section.

Tip: Make sure to knead the packet before opening to guarantee a perfectly blended treat.
