Coffee Drinks: An Everyday Beverage Ritual

Discover coffee beverages through format, flavour and product information.

11 May 2023

A familiar ritual

Coffee is part of many everyday routines and social occasions. Explore the beverage experience alongside the product details relevant to a ready-to-drink range: flavour, serving information, formulation and packaging.

Know the finished drink

A coffee beverage can include ingredients beyond coffee. Review the full ingredient declaration and nutrition panel, including any relevant milk or allergen information. Caffeine information, where needed, should be confirmed for the selected product rather than inferred from a general article.

Formats and occasions

Ready-to-drink packaging changes the way a coffee beverage is presented and served. Compare the available product formats with the channels you supply and the drinking occasions you want to support. Product samples can help evaluate the actual beverage.

A wider portfolio

Coffee drinks can be explored alongside tea, fruit juice and other beverage families. A portfolio does not need to rely on broad health claims to communicate its appeal. Clear flavour descriptions, original packaging and accurate specifications give buyers useful starting points.

Handling and documentation

Follow the final label for storage and serving instructions. Ask for current specifications and the records relevant to your destination market. Preparation methods for freshly brewed coffee should not automatically be applied to packaged drinks.
