For over 10 years, Maajaidum (085-030-5003, www.maajaidum.com) has provided Chiang Mai with local booze made out of potatoes that tastes kind of like vodka.

 

Now, the brand has moved into its own coffee shop, giving you an excuse to get tipsy in the Northern capital during the daytime. Take your coffee as a jelly-and-Maajaidum shot (B75), or as a rich chocolate liqueur with the Maajaidum Brownie (B70).

 

For those who want to stay sober, there are some alcohol free-drinks and sweets, too, served up in a cute backyard space.
