Death Wish Coffee lattes — Death Wish Coffee Co.'s Premium Lattes Death Wish Coffee

Yet another coffee brand is hopping aboard the ready-to-drink coffee trend — but Death Wish Coffee Co. is doing something different. In response to rising consumer demand for clean energy coffees, Death Wish Coffee Co.’s newest premium ready-to-drink canned lattes are crafted with simple ingredients, including Fair Trade Certified 100% Colombian cold brew coffee and milk. These sustainably sourced lattes tout a cleaner label while still packing a punch. Each cold coffee can contains up to as much caffeine as 1.5 cups of coffee.

The new Death Wish Coffee Co. latte cans are available in three delicious flavors ‒ Vanilla, Mocha, and Original. Unlike other options on the market that contain high amounts of sugar and carry lengthy lists of unrecognizable, artificial ingredients, Death Wish Coffee Co.’s Premium Lattes provide a trusted alternative. In addition, each can has fewer calories and up to 87% less added sugar per serving than the leading RTD coffee, per Death Wish Coffee Co. Each drink also serves as a good source of protein and calcium and contains no artificial caffeine, colors, flavors, sweeteners, or growth hormones.

“We’ve been working hard to craft a collection of premium lattes that consumers can rely on without compromising on quality,” said Michelle Gallo, Vice President of Marketing for Death Wish Coffee Co. “To us, great taste doesn’t equate to a ton of added sugar and artificial ingredients.”

Nitro cold brew trend grows as specialty coffee takes center stage

Where the nitro cold brew market is headed

Dunkin nitro cold brew

A new Nitrogenated Coffee Market Intelligence Study published by Grand View Research has estimated that the global nitrogenated coffee market is expected to reach USD 144.5 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 24.4% from 2024 to 2030. The rising interest in nitro cold brew is thought to be driven by the demand of health-conscious consumers who prefer nitro cold brew for its lower sugar and calorie content compared to traditional coffee beverages. In addition, the report suggests that nitro cold brew complements the growing demand for lactose-free and non-dairy alternatives in the coffee industry, offering a drink that has a natural sweetness without any dairy.

The report also highlighted major companies playing a role in the nitrogenated coffee market, which included: Starbucks Corporation, International Coffee & Tea, LLC, McDonald’s, Blackeye Roasting Co., and more. The North American nitrogenated coffee market secured the dominant share with 79.4% in 2023, owing to the well-established coffee culture, with the European market at 11.4% of the global revenue share in 2023. The study found that the smooth, creamy, and less-bitter taste profile of nitro cold brew has appealed to a wide range of coffee drinkers, particularly younger demographics and millennials who seek a sensory experience from drinking coffee.

Your morning coffee might hold the secret to a happier day, study finds

Coffee really does make us happier

coffee to go cup

Most coffee drinkers would likely already agree their morning cup of coffee makes them happier -- but a new study now supports this claim. A recently published study in the journal Scientific Reports by researchers at the University of Warwick and Bielefeld University found that study participants reported feeling happier and more enthusiastic compared to those who had not yet had their morning cup of coffee. Individuals in the study received questions on their phone several times a day, requiring them to report how they currently felt and how recently they consumed caffeine.

The study followed 200 young adults over the course of four weeks, measuring reported moods before and after consuming coffee. A professor involved in the study at the University of Warwick commented that the positive mood boost occurs as caffeine blocks the adenosine receptors in the brain. The study focused on caffeine consumption in everyday life and not in an artificial lab setting.

Even organic coffee isn’t always clean — what you need to know (and how to shop smarter)

Is organic coffee as clean as you think?

Cup of coffee

The Clean Label Project, an organization committed to exposing hidden risks that don't appear on labels, just released a new study on caffeinated coffee, which may surprise many coffee drinkers. The newly published study tested 57 coffee products from 45 of the industry's top-selling brands and found industrial and environmental contaminants in many coffee products that were labeled as organic.

Researchers detected traces of AMPA, a glyphosate byproduct, in 100% of organic samples, despite its use being prohibited in organic farming (yes, you heard that right). To learn more about the impact of this alarming organic coffee study, I got the scoop from Molly Hamilton, Executive Director of Clean Label Project. Here's what she thinks consumers should know about the impact of this study and how to adopt a smarter way of shopping for coffee.
