Many brands are gearing up for Friends' 25th anniversary with fun collaborations, including The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, which is now giving people the chance to enjoy a range of coffee and tea products inspired by Central Perk. In partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products, The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf developed an entire product collection that pays homage to the show's iconic coffee shop.
While the Central Perk Medium Roast is nutty, balanced, sweet and smooth, the Central Perk Tea takes the form of a black tea with refreshing citrus notes. Alongside its range of packaged tea and coffee products, the cafe will also be selling Friends-themed beverages, each of which is named after a character from the show—The Rachel is a matcha latte and The Phoebe combines vanilla and espresso flavors with chocolate cookie pieces.
