Consulting Chef

Coffee Mixologist (Consultant with potential for ongoing role)

Brooklyn Heights, NY

We’re opening a new Afghan-inspired bakery in New York, led by a celebrated pastry chef. As we build out our concept, we’re looking for a   Coffee Mixologist   to consult on a signature drink menu that pairs beautifully with our unique pastries.

About the Role :

This is a consulting project to help us design a small but thoughtful beverage program featuring coffee and tea drinks including signature lattes, chais, and house made syrups using ingredients that complement our warm Afghan flavor profile. You’ll collaborate directly with our baker to ensure the drinks and pastries tell a cohesive flavor story.

While this is a short-term consulting role, we’re open to bringing the right person on board in a longer term capacity if there’s mutual interest.

Responsibilities :

Develop a drink menu that aligns with our pastry offerings

Create original syrups and infusions (spiced, floral, seasonal, etc.)

Assist in recipe documentation, sourcing, and training support

Advise on workflow and equipment as needed

Who You Are :

Experienced in coffee, tea, or beverage development (barista, mixologist, or café consultant)

Passionate about flavor pairing and thoughtful presentation

Comfortable working with spices and nontraditional ingredients

Reliable, collaborative, and detail-oriented

Familiarity with Afghan or regional flavors is a plus, but not required

Compensation :

Freelance / consultant rate based on scope and experience. We’re open to your rate — we care most about finding the right creative fit and are happy to discuss terms that work for you.

Option to transition into an ongoing team role as menu and business grows

with a short intro, relevant experience, and any examples of drink development work (menus, photos, recipes, etc.).

Looking forward to hearing from you!
