Project description: Workers are putting the finishing touches outside and inside a familiar slope-roofed black and beige Scooter’s Coffee kiosk, set to open in Bolivar by Feb. 1. The Omaha, Nebraska-based franchise offers espresso drinks, smoothies, organic hot and iced teas, and cold brew coffee, as well as pastries and the company’s signature drink, called the Caramelicious.
