National Coffee Day is on the horizon and to help coffee lovers celebrate the occasion, Shipley Donuts created a sweet treat in the form of a Cold Brew Donut. This first-of-its-kind treat isn't just full of the bold, rich flavors of cold brew coffee, it also serves as a pick-me-up that provides 56 milligrams of caffeine—roughly two-thirds the amount found in an eight-ounce cup of coffee. This donut mingles a beloved coffee flavor with Shipley's signature fresh-made daily classic buttermilk cake donut, and it's all topped off with glaze.
On National Coffee Day on Monday, Shipley Donuts will treat loyalty members to a free Cold Brew Donut, or Original Glazed, with the purchase of any coffee at select locations. After that, the Cold Brew Donut will be available for a limited time, while supplies last.
