An acai and coffee shop coming to Sarasota will be owned by two professional athletes. Raining Berries will soon welcome customers to its store near Morton’s Market on Osprey Avenue.
Part of the Tampa-headquartered Raining Berries franchise, the store will be owned by franchisees Edwin Jackson, a retired pitcher for the Arizona Diamondbacks, and Super Bowl champion Kenneth Gainwell, a running back who played for the Philadelphia Eagles last season and just signed a new contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Raining Berries serves up smoothies, fruit bowls, toasted foods like avocado toast and grilled cheese as well as frappes, lattes and other coffee beverages. The Sarasota store will also sell gelato.
