Naturally, when autumn rolls around, people can't wait to get a taste of anything pumpkin-themed, and the Pumpkin Layered Latte is a seasonal sipper that satisfies by blending pumpkin syrup into oat milk, then topping it with Ethiopian and Bali Blue Moon Cold Brew and a light sprinkle of cinnamon. Other new Layered Lattes include the Matcha Layered Latte and the Vanilla Layered Latte, all of which boast aesthetically pleasing ombre layers. The all-new Layered Lattes are now being served at The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf through early November 2025. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.1/10 - Popularity: 35% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 48% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Dairy-free Alternatives:** The rising demand for dairy-free products is being met with innovative offerings like Layered Lattes, which incorporate oat milk to satisfy lactose-intolerant and vegan consumers. - **Texture-driven Beverages:** A focus on the textual experience of drinks, as seen with the Texture-Forward Lattes, is driving a new wave of consumer interest in dynamic and interactive beverage options. - **Aesthetically Pleasing Drink Creations:** The use of visually appealing ombre layers in drinks highlights a trend where visual presentation is as pivotal as taste in the beverage industry. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Dairy-free Food & Beverage:** With increasing consumer interest in lactose-free lifestyles, the Dairy-Free Food & Beverage industry is expanding rapidly with diverse and innovative product lines. - **Specialty Coffee Shops:** Specialty coffee shops are evolving by incorporating unique texture and visual elements to deeper engage the modern, experience-driven consumer market. - **Seasonal Flavor Innovations:** The creation of seasonal flavors, particularly those that capture the spirit of autumn like pumpkin, reflects an ongoing trend harnessed by the flavor innovation sector to entice repeat customers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Seasonal Pumpkin Chai Lattes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pumpkin-chai-cream-iced-latte.md) - [Spiced Vanilla Lattes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vanilla-spiced-chai-latte.md) - [Winter-Ready Seasonal Beverage Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coffee-bean-tea-leaf1.md) - [Layered Coffee Beverages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/layered-coffee-beverages.md) - [Mango-Matcha Beverages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mango-matcha-latte.md) - [Dairy-Free Fall Lattes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-crisp-oatmilk-macchiato.md) - [Honey Nut Latte Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-coffee-bean-tea-leaf2.md) - [Non-Dairy Fall Drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iced-apple-crisp.md) - [Nutty Oat-Flavored Fall Lattes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pecan-crunch-oatmilk-latte.md)
