For the fall season, The Coffee Bean is unveiling a range of new beverages inspired by the comforting flavors of pumpkin and salted caramel, including a Pumpkin Cold Brew Almond Milk Latte. The all-new beverage flavor perfectly capitalizes on the of-the-moment popularity of cold brew products, seasonal spiced pumpkin flavors and plant-based dairy alternatives.
As part of its seasonal menu for the fall, The Coffee Bean is also introducing a range of pumpkin-inspired refreshments, which includes a Pumpkin Spiced Chai Tea Latte, which may also be ordered as an iced drink, rather than hot.
This season, consumers are also enjoying spiced pumpkin flavors in the form of decadent brownies, marshmallows, popcorn snacks and even seasoned nut mixes.
