# Cold Carbonated Coffee Coffer's Carbonated Coffee is a Cold and Bubbly Caffeinated Treat By Rebecca Byers | Published 2015-03-19 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carbonated-coffee References: [grubstreet](http://www.grubstreet.com/2014/10/coffer-carbonated-cold-brew-coffee.html) & [drinkcoffer](http://www.drinkcoffer.com/) Based in Austin, Coffer is the world's first naturally carbonated coffee brand. The natural fermentation process means a smoother cold brew and is what sets Coffer apart. The coffee-soda hybrid is an intriguing convergence of the [cold brew coffee movement](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/readytodrink-cold-brew) and the influence of [SodaStream](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-sodastream-flavors). However, Coffer differs from other [carbonated coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dreamland-koffucha) in its production process, choosing to avoid both force-carbonating the product and simply mixing cold brew with soda water. Coffer's method sees the carbonation process happen naturally through fermentation during a natural aging process. Coffer's cold brew carbonated coffee can be enjoyed on its own, over ice cream or mixed into cocktails. Currently, Coffer is only available at a handful of local retailers within Texas, but the brand is working on national expansion within the US. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.6/10 - Popularity: 70% | Activity: 89% | 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) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Carbonated Coffee as a Cold Brew Alternative:** The rise of carbonated coffee offers a disruptive innovation opportunity to provide consumers with a refreshing cold brew experience. - **Natural Fermentation in Beverage Production:** The trend of using natural fermentation in beverage production presents an opportunity for companies to explore unique and innovative ways to create carbonated beverages. - **Diversifying Cold Brew Applications:** The exploration of different ways to enjoy cold brew, such as mixing it into cocktails or using it as a flavoring agent, presents opportunities for innovative product development. ### Where This Applies - **Coffee Industry:** The coffee industry can explore carbonated coffee as a potential new product category to meet consumer demand for unique coffee experiences. - **Beverage Industry:** The carbonated coffee trend presents opportunities for the beverage industry to develop new and innovative carbonated beverages. - **Alcohol and Mixology Industry:** The integration of carbonated coffee into cocktails opens up opportunities for the alcohol and mixology industry to create unique and refreshing drink options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Coffee-Infused Sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocacola-with-coffee1.md) - [Canned Nitro-Infused Cold Coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nitroinfused-cold-coffee.md) - [Juicy Coffee Sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/comeback-coffee-soda.md) - [Cappuccino-Inspired Cold Brews](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stk-cold-brew-cappuccino.md) - [Cold Brew Cocktail Mixers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/split-tree.md) - [RTD Sparkling Iced Coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fuzzee-coffee.md) - [Textural Sweet Cold Coffees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nitro-sweet-cold-brew.md) - [Cold Brew Coffee Ciders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coffee-cider.md) - [Aerated Coffee Drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aerocano.md)
