Celebrity sightings across Miami, especially in our food scene, aren’t uncommon. But one beloved beverage shop received an unexpected visit from none other than the King of Latin Pop himself, Ricky Martin!
Much to the delight of staff, the singer stopped in to Sip 305 across from Florida International University on Tuesday, days after starring in Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl LX halftime show. He was surprised to find a whiteboard hanging from the coffee shop’s wall that playfully reads, “People Who Sip For Free,” which included his name alongside other stars like Bad Bunny, Pedro Pascal and Lady Gaga.
In a video posted to Sip 305’s socials, Martin points to his name and exclaims, “¡Qué casualidad! Besos y abrazos. Look at this,” before panning the camera around to show a stunned employee.
Known for their massive menu of customizable and creative drinks, Sip 305 can be found across two locations in the city, one by FIU and another in Kendall. You can expect to find specialty coffees, milkshakes and “Sunshine Sodas,” in addition to house-made treats like Nutella cookie sandwiches.
In case you’re wondering which drink Martin had a free taste of, the caption in Sip 305’s video reads, “He got a mango smoothie btw 🥭🥤.”
If you’d like to get a sip yourself, visit Sip 305 at both 636 SW 109th Avenue and 9605 N Kendall Drive. Learn more on their website.
