Some of the festive drinks that can be found on the menu at [Peet's Coffee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/churroinspired-beverages) for the 2020 season include returning favorites like the Holiday Spice Latte, Dark Chocolate Orange Mocha and [Peppermint Mocha](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peppermint-mocha-cappuccino), as well as newly debuted products like the Snowcap Peppermint Cold Brew and Snowcap Mint Matcha Latte.

The richly sensory Snowcap Mint Matcha Latte, designed to be enjoyed iced or hot, was created to be a new holiday classic and the iced-only Snowcap Peppermint Cold Brew boasts a blend of bold, sweet and comforting flavors thanks to its base of peppermint Baridi cold brew. As Patrick Main, Senior R&D Manager, Peet's Coffee, says: "Our new Snowcap beverages include an [airy, lightly-sweetened topping](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-cold-foams) that creates a unique velvety experience reminiscent of the snowy peaks of winter."
