Tim Hortons Canada is gearing up for summer with the release of two new maple-flavored beverages. Playing up a quintessential Canadian ingredient, the new drinks put a deliciously sweet spin on the chain's existing line of blended drinks.
The new drink menu includes two tasty maple creations: the Maple Ice Capp and the Creamy Maple Chill. The former is a blended frozen coffee beverage made with the signature Ice Capp base, cream and a hint of maple syrup. The latter is a non-caffeinated drink made with real cream and enough maple flavor to make it a decadent frozen treat. Both drinks are topped with whipped cream and finished with real maple flakes.
For an extra-special Canadian twist, the chain promoted the new maple-flavored beverages by apologizing to Canadians for being late on the maple trend.
