For spring 2020, Peet's Coffee is introducing a limited-edition range of drinks inspired by florals, including several lavender beverages. There's the Honey Lavender Latte with espresso and creamy milk and the Lavender Tea Latte prepared with steamed milk and Mighty Leaf Tea Summer Solstice tea. Both of these uplifting lavender beverages can be ordered iced or hot, and are sweetened with a hint of house-made lavender syrup. For these beverages, Peet's works with sweet, herbaceous and aromatic lavender from Provence to capture "the sense of renewal that comes with springtime."
The spring lineup from Peet's Coffee also includes the Honey Cold Brew Fog that's enhanced with honey and whipped with ice.
