The Peet's Coffee summer menu has been formally debuted by the brand with a series of refreshments that tap into consumer demand for several specific beverages varieties. The menu starts off by debuting the Sparkling Energy drinks that prioritize fruit-forward flavor in two options including Strawberry and Watermelon to satisfy taste preferences for non-coffee drinks. The menu also introduces the Protein Banana Cold Brew Oat Latte alongside the Matcha protein latte, which each feature 30-grams of protein to give them an impressive nutritional boost in every serving.
The Peet's Coffee summer menu is being promoted with the Chief Playlist Officer promotion that puts the brand's new Middle Ground Half-Calf blend in focus. Fans only need to share their Middle Ground Mix playlist and tell their story to be entered for a chance to win a four-day music festival weekend prize pack in Chicago.
