While Caribou Coffee is following the lead of other coffee shops and bringing back its Pumpkin Pie Latte for the fall season, the chain is also shaking things up with the addition of the brand new Creme Brulee Boudino.
The Creme Brulee Boudino is a seasonal espresso-based drink that is inspired by an Italian pudding called 'boudino.' The drink itself consists of espresso and steamed milk, mixed with caramel and vanilla. The drink is then topped with whipped cream, caramel sauce and a sugar-salt blend. To complement the temperamental fall weather, the drink will be available in hot, iced and Cooler versions.
The addition of the Creme Brulee Boudino to the Caribou Coffee menu gives consumers an alternative to the many pumpkin-themed drinks available from other chains this time of year.
