The Coffee Culture
By Lisa Monti, Emerald Coast Magazine, Oct/Nov 2009
The robust drink has become more than a morning beverage — it’s a medium
for social connections along the Emerald Coast
For something that comes from a small bean, coffee is a powerful commodity.
Throughout history, possibly as far back as the 15th century, coffee has been
prized and consumed in many parts of the world. From its likely origins in
Ethiopia, coffee spread to Asia, then to Europe before finally taking hold in
the Americas [....]
Along the Emerald Coast, coffee — really good coffee — is widely available at
some very special places that have become a pleasant part of the day for
residents and an appealing draw for visitors [ . . . ]
Hibiscus Coffee & Guesthouse in Grayton Beach is decked out in 1950s Florida
décor and ambience, and it’s all very family-oriented. The place has been open
for 16 years and has a dedicated following [ . . . ]

the place to BE:
Find yourself in a new
state of mind at Hibiscus Coffee & Guesthouse
By Carolyn Mason, Photos by Robert Sutton - Tuscaloosa Magazine, Beach 2009
"Be present," commands the board in front of the Hibiscus Coffee & Guesthouse
in Grayton Beach, Fla. I wasn’t sure what to think. I arrived after a five-hour
drive from Tuscaloosa. That made me present, didn’t it?
"Not exactly," says owner Cheri Peeples after welcoming me with her trademark
bear hug. "Being fully present is something you work on. It’s a mindful presence
that’s different from just being there. It’s the Grayton way," she explained.
Every morning, Peeples, or the employee who arrives first, writes the second
half of the two-word message on the board facing the entrance to the Grayton
Beach neighborhood and the Hibiscus Coffee & Guesthouse. It didn’t take long to
get into the swing of the Grayton way. [ . . . ]

Top 10 at the Beach
Murray Balkcom - Thicket Magazine, March/April 2009
In our special little beach area of Florida’s Emerald Coast, there are no
big-box stores, dance clubs, and chain restaurants. Some people want that from
their beach vacation, and tend to stay in the bigger towns of Destin and Panama
City Beach. But for folks wanting something different, then south Walton County
is the place for you. We ’re for the visitor who‘s never heard of Sally’s in
Blue Mountain Be ach and has no clue that Sally’s has the absolute-best fried
chicken they will ever eat, but after a tip from an insider like me, you’ll go
home with that little gem tucked away for future vacations.
My list of 10 hidden gems follows (in no particular order), and I highly
recommend all of the places on this list, along with encouragement to find your
own secrets on the Emerald Coast. [ . . . ]
[ . . . ]My favorite hidden gem in South Walton is unknown to even many
locals, but slowly they are discovering it. Hibiscus Coffee and Guest House[ . . . ]

sunrise sensations
Deborah Garrison Lowery-Southern Breeze 2008 Spring Issue
Spinach and Feta Frittata
Cheri Peebles of Hibiscus Coffee and
Guesthouse in Grayton Beach, Florida, had to run back to the kitchen and whip up
this recipe to write down the amounts to share with Southern Breeze. She laughs
as she admits, "I don't usually follow a recipe." She recommends serving the
crustless quiche-like wedges to guests with a side of fruit salad topped with
coconut [ . . . ]
