Mom’s Weekend, Mapped Out: Mother’s Day in Atlanta: 

FOR THE ACTIVE & ADVENTUROUS MOMS 

Mother’s Day at SKOL Brewing Company Comes with Free Axe Throwing

 One part brunch, one part stress relief. Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 10, at SKOL Brewing Company skips the usual playbook. No set menus, no quiet dining rooms, no pressure to dress it up. Just good food, strong drinks, and something no one else is offering: complimentary axe throwing for moms, courtesy of American Axes. Set inside the historic 200 Peachtree, a short walk from Mercedes-Benz Stadium, State Farm Arena, and Centennial Yards, SKOL keeps the energy up with an à la carte brunch that leans hearty and straightforward. Brisket hash with eggs, chicken and waffles with hot honey, smoked salmon benedict, and the SKOLl Classic omelette with bacon, cheddar, and hash browns folded inside. Nordic French toast with berry compote for something sweet, and a breakfast burger topped with a fried egg and maple black pepper aioli for anyone leaning savory. Plates that show up hot and don’t need explaining. SKOL classics like the Berserker Burger and signature SKOL Dip remain in play, alongside cheese curds, wings, and other favorites that have quickly defined the menu. Bottomless mimosas keep things moving, alongside a Bloody Mary loaded enough to count as a side. SKOL Brewing Company is located at 155 Carnegie Way NW, Atlanta, GA 30308, in the 200 Peachtree building- just four blocks from Mercedes-Benz Stadium. SKOL opens daily, Monday-Friday at 4p, and on Saturday and Sunday at noon. Parking is conveniently located across the street for $6.00 with restaurant validation.

MOM’S DAY GIFTING OUTSIDE THE BOX 

Jittery Joe’s Mama’s Boy Blend Puts a Southern Spin on Mother’s Day Gifting

Some titles come with expectations. This Mother’s Day, it starts with Mom, and what she actually reaches for every morning. Jittery Joe’s Coffee makes a strong case for getting it right with its Mama’s Boy blend, a bright, easy-drinking roast inspired by Mama’s Boy in Athens, where the coffee is strong and the regulars know exactly what they’re ordering. The blend keeps things simple in the best way. Clean, balanced, and reliable enough to reach for without thinking twice. Call it what you want. She’ll think of you every time she pours a cup. From there, the options open up. Jittery Joe’s has made a name for itself through collaborations that celebrate Southern culture, and the lineup reflects it, from the Fox Theatre Blue Sky Blend for the mom who loves a night at the theatre, to Pete the Cat favorites inspired by the beloved children’s book character, and The Kitchen Brew, created with Eric Roddy, a medium roast for the pickleball-playing mom who’s always in motion. Founded in Athens in 1994, Jittery Joe’s has built a national following through small-batch roasting and a steady stream of collaborations tied to music, culture, and community, while continuing to roast every batch back in Georgia. Everything ships nationwide, so it arrives right at her door.  Mama’s Boy medium roast is $20.99 and available at jitteryjoes.com. For updates on new releases, events, and more, follow @jitteryjoescoffee on Instagram.

This Mother’s Day, Wine Moms Rewrite the Pour with Nine Dot

For years, the “wine mom” trope has been everywhere—memes, merch, and a cultural shorthand for winding down at the end of a long day. But this Mother’s Day, a different kind of ritual is taking hold. More moms are reaching for cannabis-infused beverages instead of a second glass of wine, trading hangovers and sugar crashes for something lighter, more controlled, and decidedly more modern. Call it a shift, call it an upgrade, but the message is clear: the way moms unwind is evolving. Enter Nine Dot, the Atlanta-born cannabis beverage brand quietly becoming the go-to for those in the know. Designed as a low-dose, alcohol alternative, Nine Dot delivers a fast-acting, social buzz in as little as 10 to 15 minutes without the calories or next-day fog. The lineup meets the moment, whether it’s a subtle 3mg THC / 5mg CBG blend for a relaxed, easy lift or a higher-dose 10mg option for those ready to lean in a little further. Now available in fresh flavors like Berry Punch and Peach Punch in addition to the original Tropical Punch, the lineup brings a more dynamic, fruit-forward edge to the experience. The effect is consistent, the flavor is clean, and the experience feels more like a choice than a crutch. It’s also changing the tone of the conversation. What was once framed as coping is now about intention. How to unwind, how to socialize, how to take the edge off without overdoing it. For a growing number of women, that means drinking outside the box. This Mother’s Day, the gifting playbook is shifting too. Flowers are nice. Brunch reservations are expected. But a fridge stocked with something she’ll actually reach for later? That’s the move. Nine Dot is available for purchase online at DrinkNine.com and at select Atlanta retailers and dining destinations, including Grant Park Market, 3 Parks Wine in Glenwood Park and Old Fourth Ward, The Zero Co., Hop City, Red’s Beer Garden, Home Grown, and more. All products are hemp-derived, federally compliant, and intended for adults 21+. For more information, including product offerings and retail locations, visit DrinkNine.com and follow along on Instagram and TikTok at @DrinkNineDot. Made in Atlanta, Georgia.
