Coke’s Gold Peak to add lattes, coffees to line up

Coca-Cola’s Gold Peak brand plans to introduce ready-to-drink tea lattes and coffees in the first quarter of 2017, the company said Thursday.

Ready-to-drink lattes is an emerging category in the beverage industry, the company said, while coffee is seen as a growth category.

“Gold Peak has a passionate following of fans who love the ‘taste that brings you home’,” Geoff Henry, Coke’s vice president of tea and coffee, said in a release. “We are excited to introduce new ways for people to enjoy the brand.”

Gold Peak’s coffee joins Illy in Coca-Cola’s U.S. java portfolio.
