CVS Health's Cough Suppressant Drops Adopt an Autumnal Flavor
Laura McQuarrie — September 7, 2017 — Lifestyle
Alongside producing its own line of cough suppressant drops in flavors like Honey Lemon, Soothing Berry and even the online-only exclusive Root Beer, CVS Health pharmacy recently launched a new flavor option that tastes of Pumpkin Spice. The flavored, limited-edition menthol cough suppressant drops promise to temporarily relieve a bothersome cough, as well as soothe a sore throat, but with a flavor that will remind consumers of the comforts of the fall season.
Recently, Kit Kat launched a unique lozenge-flavored chocolate bar, and a number of brands are also experimenting with creating throat-soothing solutions that come in flavors other than something botanical or fruity.
This year, consumers have been enjoying spiced pumpkin flavors in the form of everything from rise crisp squares and nut mixes to dairy-free cheesecakes.
