Caribou Coffee's new canned cold brew beverages consist of the chain's popular Caribou Blend beans, which have been brewed slowly for twelve hours. The coffee is then packaged in premium, [ready-to-drink cans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/second-cup-ready-to-drink-lattes) with three different varieties to choose from. First up is the Cold Brew Black Coffee, which is great for those who enjoy no-frills cold brew. For those who like something a little bit more sweet, there the Cold Brew Original Crafted infused with cream and a hint of sugar, or the Cold Brew Vanilla Crafted, made with cream and vanilla. The Cold Brew Black Coffee is available now at all Caribou Coffee locations, while the two sweetened versions can be found as of this September.
