The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf is kicking off spring with the launch of two exciting new beverages: the new Cardamom Cold Brew and the Mango Ice Blended.
Cardamom is a warm and fragrant spice that's similar in flavor to spices like nutmeg, cinnamon, and allspice. The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf's new Cardamom Cold Brew takes the brand's signature cold brew and infuses it with a brand-new cardamom syrup that adds "warm, subtly sweet spice notes with hints of citrus." To kick the drink up another notch, consumers can top their cold brew with a cream cap.
On the other hand, the Mango Ice Blended is a sweet slushie drink with a bold, yet refreshing mango flavor.
