Levain Bakery Brings Peanut Butter Cookie to Fashion Island

09.28.26

The cookie peanut butter fans have asked for by name is back, and this year it's coming to Orange County for the first time. Levain Bakery's limited-edition Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate Chip Cookie returns for three days only, Friday, Oct. 2, through Sunday, Oct. 4. 

Now in its second year, Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate Chip Weekend arrives at Levain Fashion Island, giving Orange County cookie lovers their first chance to try it at their neighborhood bakery.

When Levain introduced the cookie last year, the response was overwhelming. This year, the bakery is bringing it back to all of its locations, along with something new: the limited-edition Peanut Butter Cookie Milk Latte, also available Oct. 2-4 only.

The cookie blends creamy and crunchy peanut butter with rich dark chocolate chips, making it the peanut butter cookie every peanut butter lover can agree on. Like every Levain cookie, it's made with simple, real ingredients. For first-time tasters and loyal fans alike, it's one to grab before it disappears again.

To make the latte, Levain steeps its Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies in oat milk overnight and blends in creamy peanut butter. The cookie milk is paired with a fresh espresso shot and finished with chocolate cold foam and peanut butter cookie crumbs. It's rich, nutty and just sweet enough, essentially the cookie turned into a latte.

Both treats will be available at Levain Bakery from Friday, Oct. 2, through Sunday, Oct. 4, only. After that, they're gone until next year.

For fans who can't make it in person, the Peanut Butter Lover's Assortment returns online at LevainBakery.com October 2-9. Levain Bakery Newport Beach is located at 315 Newport Center Drive within Fashion Island and is open daily from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m.

Puesto Pours a Wellness-Minded Margarita With Cymbiotika

09.28.26

At Puesto, good food has always been about how guests feel when they leave. So the restaurant asked a fair question: why shouldn't the margaritas do the same?

Puesto has teamed up with Cymbiotika, the San Diego-based wellness brand known for its science-backed supplements, clean ingredients and liposomal delivery system, to bring that thinking to the bar. The result is a short lineup of margaritas built on premium ingredients, bold flavor and a few wellness-minded additions.

It's a natural pairing. Both are Southern California brands that have made ingredient integrity and transparency part of the pitch, and Cymbiotika's products are now carried by major retailers nationwide.

Two new margaritas anchored by 818 Tequila, a 100% blue Weber agave tequila produced in Jalisco's Los Valles region, join the beverage menu, along with a nonalcoholic option.

Order one with your favorite taco and toast to good food, good drinks and feeling great.

The new functional margaritas with Cymbiotika include:

MAR VERDE
818 blanco tequila, kiwi, cilantro, lime,
Cymbiotika Irish Sea Moss (Lemon Vanilla)
supports: glowing skin + gut balance

PEACHES Y CREMA 
818 blanco tequila, vecinos mezcal, peaches, coconut cream,
Cymbiotika Liposomal Glutathione (Citrus Vanilla)
supports: detox, glow, gut balance

PIÑA SPRITZ non-alcoholic 
pineapple, elderflower, Crodino aperitivo, lemon,
Cymbiotika Liposomal D3+K2+CoQ10 (Tangerine)
supports: immunity + bone strength

Puesto’s new functional beverages with Cymbiotika will be available at all Puesto locations beginning September 21, 2026. For more information, please visit eatpuesto.com.
