Go into any grocery store and you probably won't have a very tough time finding [flavored coffee yogurt](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pinkberry-white-mocha). It may be offered by all of the biggest dairy brands, but [Alpina](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/italcol) is offering a twist on this dairy treat. There have been many attempts to imitate the flavor of a freshly brewed cup of java, but the yogurt in the Alpina Café Selections line is actually infused with 100% authentic Columbian coffee.

Realizing the consumption of coffee is higher than soda in the United States, and the fact that many people have a soft spot for [specialty coffee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beans-brews-protein-coffee) are some of the reasons that Alpina crafted this energizing yogurt line. With flavors like Coffee, Mocha, Vanilla Latte and Caramel Macchiato, you'll hardly miss your morning brew.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Coffee-flavored Yogurt:** There is potential for a disruptive innovation opportunity in creating a line of coffee-flavored yogurts made with authentic coffee beans from different regions around the world.
- **Functional Food:** Creating functional coffee-infused yogurt that contains additional nutrients such as protein, fiber, or vitamins could be a way to appeal to health-conscious consumers who are looking for convenient yet nourishing food options.
- **Premium Ingredients:** Using premium ingredients to craft unique and indulgent yogurt flavors could be a way to differentiate from competitors and appeal to consumers who are willing to pay a premium price for high-quality food products.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Dairy Industry:** The dairy industry could consider partnering with coffee brands or independent coffee roasters to create a range of coffee-infused yogurts that appeal to coffee enthusiasts.
- **Coffee Industry:** The coffee industry could expand into the functional food market by partnering with dairy companies and creating coffee-infused yogurt that contains additional nutrients and health benefits.
- **Specialty Food Industry:** The specialty food industry could focus on creating artisanal coffee-infused yogurts that use premium ingredients and unique flavor combinations to appeal to consumers who seek gourmet food experiences.
