The New Orleans-born coffee brand PJ’s Coffee is gearing up for summer with two exciting new limited-time drinks: Bayou Breeze and Caramel Pecan Red Bull.
Available now through August 4th, PJ's newest drinks will keep you cool, refreshed, and energized all summer long. The first of the new drinks, Bayou Breeze, is a blended refresher that combines citrus and tropical fruit flavors with lemonade and a little energy boost. On the other hand, the new Caramel Pecan Red Bull takes the classic taste of Red Bull and adds nutty, buttery flavors, along with a creamy, sweet cold foam on top. As Reid Nolte, Executive Vice President of Marketing for PJ’s Coffee, notes in a recent press release, "From the tropical lift of Bayou Breeze to the Southern-inspired twist on energy in Caramel Pecan Red Bull, these drinks are meant to surprise with their layered flavor profiles."
