Micah’s Mixx started out as a homespun stand. Now it’s a booming business with plans to expand.
Micah Idris Harrington is the prince of the muggy South Philly summer. The ten-year-old entrepreneur sells cold cups of homemade lemonade—five flavors, plus a weekly special—at his pop-up stand, Micah’s Mixx, which draws both social media fans and random passersby seeking a waystation when the city’s concrete sidewalks are hot as pizza stones.
At first we sold out , but it got cold so we didn’t do many stands. Then COVID-19 came, and we had to wait a couple more months before we could start up again. This summer we started doing more pop-ups and collaborations around Philadelphia. The first was with Rally Coffee, and it was the most lemonade we ever sold: 150 bottles in less than an hour. A lot of people have gotten to know me because of these pop-ups. Social media has also helped.
Micah’s Mixx wouldn’t be possible without my mom. Working with her is the best. She has two jobs, second-grade teacher and bartender—she can cut a box of fruit in seconds! Teaching is to pay for house expenses, and bartending is to pay for the things that we do for fun. My mom taught me to work for what you need. We have been best friends my whole life, and I love her. She is my partner in business, and always will be.She’s the money person.
