These ready-to-drink coffees will cater to the growing number of consumers who are looking for convenient and portable ways to caffeinate on the go. Starting in 2017, Dunkin' Donuts-branded coffee will be available in ready to drink bottles. The bottled coffee drinks will be produced as part of a partnership with Coca-Cola and they will be sold in both convenience stores and grocery stores. The brand's iced coffee will also be sold at Dunkin' Donuts locations for those looking for a more portable cold drink option. The new ready-to-drink beverages will ultimately help Dunkin' Donuts expand its consumer base by making the brand's products available outside of its own stores. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 70% | Activity: 79% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Bottled Coffee Beverages:** The trend of offering bottled coffee beverages provides a convenient and portable way for consumers to enjoy their favorite coffee on the go. - **Partnerships with Beverage Companies:** The trend of partnering with beverage companies, such as Coca-Cola, opens up opportunities for coffee brands to expand their reach and distribution channels. - **Expansion Into Grocery and Convenience Stores:** The trend of selling ready-to-drink coffee in grocery and convenience stores allows coffee brands to tap into new markets and reach consumers who may not have easy access to coffee shops. ### Where This Applies - **Coffee:** Coffee industry players can seize the opportunity to launch their own line of bottled coffee beverages and establish partnerships for wider distribution. - **Beverage:** The beverage industry can explore partnerships with coffee brands to capitalize on the growing demand for ready-to-drink coffee products. - **Retail:** Retailers can benefit from this trend by diversifying their product offerings to include ready-to-drink coffee, providing consumers with a convenient beverage option. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dessert-Inspired RTD Coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dunkin-iced-coffee.md) - [Cold Brew QSR Lineups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dunkin-cold-brew.md) - [Spiked Iced Coffee Lineups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dunkin-spiked.md) - [Ice Cream-Inspired Frozen Coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ice-creaminspired-frozen-coffees.md) - [Ready-to-Drink Spiked Mocha Lattes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dunkin-spiked-peppermint-mocha-iced-latte.md) - [Modernized Ready-to-Drink Coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/costa-coffee-readytodrink.md) - [S’mores-Flavored Cold Brew Concentrate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smores-concentrate.md) - [Donut-Flavored Iced Coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jimmys-iced-coffee-donut.md) - [Versatile Cafe Coffee Creamers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salted-caramel-creamer.md)
