Playing up a quintessential Canadian ingredient, the new drinks put a deliciously sweet spin on the chain's existing line of blended drinks. The new drink menu includes two tasty maple creations: the Maple Ice Capp and the Creamy Maple Chill. The former is a [blended frozen coffee beverage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frozen-quenchers) made with the signature Ice Capp base, cream and a hint of maple syrup. The latter is a [non-caffeinated drink](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-tim-hortons-refreshers) made with real cream and enough maple flavor to make it a decadent frozen treat. Both drinks are topped with whipped cream and finished with real maple flakes. For an extra-special Canadian twist, the chain promoted the new maple-flavored beverages by apologizing to Canadians for being late on the maple trend. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.8/10 - Popularity: 10% | Activity: 37% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - 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 ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Maple-flavored Beverages:** Opportunity for creating a variety of innovative and delicious maple-infused drinks. - **Blended Frozen Coffee Beverages:** Potential to develop unique and refreshing blended frozen coffee drinks using different flavors and ingredients. - **Promoting Local Ingredients:** Chance to highlight and capitalize on regional ingredients, creating pride and connection among customers. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Coffee Chains:** Introducing new maple-flavored beverages can attract customers and differentiate a coffee chain from competitors. - **Food and Beverage Manufacturing:** Opportunity to produce and distribute maple-flavored ingredients and products for coffee chains and other businesses. - **Tourism and Hospitality:** Incorporating regional flavors like maple can enhance the culinary experiences offered by hotels, restaurants, and tourist destinations. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Expansive Summertime Cafe Refreshments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summer-drinks-menu.md) - [Celebratory Chilled Cappuccino Drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-tim-hortons-iced-capp.md) - [Canada-Inspired Maple Lattes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iced-maple-latte.md) - [Relaxing Autumnal Cafe Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tim-hortons-fall-menu.md) - [Seasonal Canadiana Lattes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maple-latte-1.md) - [Maple Syrup Cafe Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tim-hortons-maple-collection.md) - [Nutty White Chocolate Drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/white-chocolate-macadamia-flavored-drinks.md) - [Icy Berry Blend Drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/berry-cherry-refresher.md) - [Minty Festive Cafe Drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peppermint-beverages.md)
