The fastest-growing specialty coffee isn’t coming. It’s here.

Cold brew coffee has become one of the most desired trend-forward beverage options across foodservice channels, outperforming other rising coffee categories. But what makes it powerful isn’t just demand, it’s a clear shift in consumer behavior.

According to Datassential, QSR accounts for 32% of venues where consumers purchase cold brew, it is still consumed more often away from home than at home, and it has moved into the ubiquity stage, marking significant menu penetration since 2018.

Cold brew isn’t about experimentation anymore. It’s about repeat behavior.
