There are only two states in the US that commercially produce coffee: Hawaii and California.
History
Ready-to-Drink Coffees
Famous for its invigorating properties, legends of the humble coffee beans’ origin come from 850 CE Ethiopia, where an Arab goat herder was puzzled by the strange energy of his flock after consuming wild berries. Although popular for many centuries in parts of Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, it wasn't until the 16th and 17th centuries that coffee was formally spread throughout Europe.
Modern coffee exists among a myriad of different products including cold brew, frappés, espresso drinks, and more. Today, you can bet that just about every neighborhood has a coffee shop, if not multiple, within its streets. Not to mention, new coffee or espresso flavors and trends circulate every day, making this drink profile evergreen for new innovations.
Key Considerations
- It's important to consider that the pH of coffee is too high for typical preservation methods, making your options for large-scale manufacturers rather limited and more costly. We do, however, have a team that can help you navigate the process of choosing a copacker while keeping quality control a first priority.
- RTD coffees that are cream-based or contain creamer will have a shorter shelf life than those without.
- Do not be afraid to tap into trends and experiment with flavor profiles, methods, and alternatives to the typical coffee profile. For example, there have been trends surrounding using cascara, or the coffee cherry, as an innovative base for caffeinated beverages. Don't put yourself in a box!
